Recyclable Packing Materials

We love to create and craft items for you or for your loved ones as gifts! To make sure it all arrives to you safely, it takes a lot of packaging - from boxes to shredded paper to packing peanuts to bubble wrap… and tape! Yards and yards of tape! Because we care about avoiding waste as much as possible while also ensuring your goodies get delivered safely, we've deferred to packing materials that can either be reused by you or recycled. 

Here are some of our ways to reuse, recycle, and help minimize any impact on Mother Nature... :-)

Recycled Paper - Crinkle Fluff

Bright and cheery! We use all sorts of colors of recycled crinkle fluff paper to fill gift boxes. Our supplier uses recycled paper to make our crinkle in a myriad of colors. Once you receive your package, either recycle the paper or reuse it in another package! Win-win!

Wood Excelsior

When packing our RVA to Go gift boxes, we need a packing base that provides more stability than the crinkle paper shown above. So, we chose a shredded wood excelsior made in the USA that is 100% biodegradable premium wood. It helps protect heavier items and those that need to travel farther. Feel free to reuse it if you need some stability somewhere!

Dissolving Packing Peanuts

Our favorite disappearing packing peanuts would make Houdini proud! We searched for packing peanuts that would offer the protection we needed without posing a risk to the environment. The ones we like are made of cornstarch and will dissolve completely in water.  You can reuse them if needed or literally rinse them down the drain. Check out our video on how quickly they disappear!

Other Ways to Reuse...

When we receive orders from our suppliers, we recycle any cardboard boxes that our shipments come in. Plus, we save and reuse the bubble wrap that items may have been packed in. We make a conscious effort to reuse what we can or recycle it. We can all do our part!

These are just a few of the ways we try to keep our impact on the environment at a minimum. 

​​We hope you will recycle the cardboard boxes, reuse the crinkle fluff paper, and have fun watching the packing peanuts disappear!
