Day 143 of 365.
Packing for our trip to Sevilla, Spain and Stockholm, Sweden. Both Christa and I are over-packers, hence the massive amounts of clothes, bags, etc. Strangely absent from this picture are our four cats, who spent most of their day protesting the trip by snuggling up in the luggage.

The packed product is prevented from oxidation, rusting, moulding, dampness and insect infestation and thus helps prolong the product storage period. It is can also be used to detect integrity of the peck seal.
Forgot to upload for last week's 52 weeks! Oops... Still sick... I thought I had it beat, but no. I hate this. Guy hates it too. He's also very nervous about all the boxes. He doesn't like packing or anything that might be unsettling. Jan. is going to be one crazy month.
Packing tape transfers. The first is from a Celestial Seasonings tea box and an ad. The second is from "Yoga Journal". The last one is a colored pencil transfer.

I put all clothes into the larger suitcase, and miscellaneous nick-nacks and gifts in this suitcase. I guess this one will be *heavier!*

The image above shows the box with a "nest" to hold my inner shipping box. It's pretty firmly in place, but next time I will add some round cardboard buttons and heavy thread thru the layers of bubble wrap to anchor the layers so they don't move around. I may also add a layer of black flannel as Harriete suggests, to disguise the bubble wrap. I am also considering other options for the layers of bubblewrap. I tried starofoam, cut to shape, but it was too messy and I hate foam. I would love to hear about other options.
Harriete Berman has two blog posts, here and here, about packing art for shipping. I really like most of her suggestions, but she uses upholstery foam, which harbors mold. I am allergic and have had terrible reactions to foam, so it doesn't come into my house. I'm experimenting with using bubble wrap, arranging it in a "nest" so that there is no tape and the box and object don't have to be wrapped around and around to send it back. Some things have come back to be barely wrapped. Recently I sent two artist's books to a publisher, each in an inner box, inside a larger box. They were returned in their inner boxes. I don't know what happened to the outer box. It was very upsetting because one of the books was barely covered, much less protected from scratching. Luckily both books were okay.
