Tissue Boxes for Gifts by: Joyce Moseley Pierce

We have all heard of using decorative tissue to make our gift look more special. Over the years the gift bags have become so popular because all you have to do is stick your gift in the bag, stuff in some pretty tissue paper, and you're ready to go. No more worrying about cutting wrapping paper to fit or tying bows!

Thinking outside the box (or bag!) for a moment, you'll realize that there is still another option. I'm talking about tissue boxes; the square ones that you buy because they don't take up much space.

Over the years the tissue companies have gotten pretty creative in packaging their tissues. Now they come in beautiful decorator colors and designs, and you don't even need those tissue covers that we used to use to hide the ugly box.

Here are just a couple of ideas. If you start to let your mind wander, I'm sure you'll think of more.

For my mother-in-law's 70th birthday a few years ago, we had a big celebration. We wanted to give her money, but I didn't just want to put cash or a check in a card. I went to the bank and got seventy one-dollar bills and then taped them together, end to end. I folded them one by one and stuffed them into a square tissue box, and had the top bill just barely sticking up out of the box. Back then, the boxes weren't so pretty, and because we wanted her to be surprised, I wrapped the box. Everyone got excited watching her pull that roll of dollar bills out of the box. As she pulled, it looked like there was no end to the roll. It sure was a lot more fun than watching her open an envelope and lay it aside.

I have a daughter who meets with her friends every month for coffee. Last year she found tissues packaged in boxes that had coffee designs on them. She bought a wholesale size package of about 10 of them and used the tissues throughout the year. She saved the empty boxes, and at Christmas, she put a small gift, wrapped in tissue paper, inside. As each friend left her house that December day, she gave them their own coffee box. They loved it!

I think the ideas for this are limitless. It works great for something small, and spices up that "just thinking of you" gift that you might have just been picked up at the dollar store. You've spent nothing for the box, and if you're a super saver, you probably even have tissue paper that you've pulled out of a gift someone gave you.

Valentine's Day is coming up and I'm sure there will be tissue boxes decorated in hearts. With wrapping tissue to stuff in the box, you don't have to have much "quantity," but you could use them to package candies, cookies, hand lotion, lip gloss, jewelry, or anything else that will fit.

Use your imagination!
