Anyone else experimenting with custom packaging for small products?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been messing around with packaging ideas for the little handmade items I sell online, and I’m starting to realize how much difference the box or wrap makes in how people see the product. At first, I just used plain brown cartons, which worked fine for shipping, but they felt kind of… boring.

Recently, I ordered some custom packaging just to test it out (I think it was through Lsx Packaging, if I remember right). Honestly, I was surprised how much nicer it looked without being over the top. The box felt sturdier too, which was a bonus. It’s not like I’m running a huge business, but I liked how it gave everything a bit more of a “finished” feel.

Now I’m curious has anyone else tried custom mailer or product boxes for their stuff? Did you feel like it made a big difference, or was it more just for your own satisfaction?

Actually yes @Morganalex , I'm looking at this sort of thing right now. Thanks for sharing
