Another eBay package came today. I’ve been meaning to buy this odd knock off body ever since @aubreysilver posted about finding them on Aliexpress but I wanted to buy it with the protection of eBay heh. I actually bought one the same time I bought my Allan and Eegee Andy head lot back in June but… it got lost around Russia so I finally took a chance on another one after being refunded.
This knock off body uses a Fashionista Ken torso and upper arms and legs but it uses Pivotal Ken forearms and calves. I’m really surprised at how high quality it feels for a clone doll cuz the vinyl limbs aren’t all shiny and greasy but rather relatively matte. I had to carve off excess flash around the joints before posing him but for a $5 body it’ll worth it.
I’m a little surprised how pale this body is cuz Andy has been on my clone Kristoff body since I got him and the match is better. However if any of my dolls had a farmer’s tan it has to be Andy I guess.
Also I got some Kumik pumps for She Ra which fit her perfectly.

Oftentimes we think of artisan chocolates as mere snacks around holidays like Valentine’s Day and Christmas. While they ultimately are made for food, they have a certain sense of art, luxury, and fancy surrounding them. Perhaps that’s because they’re often made intending to be gifted. Perhaps it’s just a notion that I and I alone have.
Whatever the case, candy boxes are unique from other types of candy in that they focus on an assortment of chocolates and not just one type, such as a Reese’s cup or Hershey’s bar. Boxes of chocolate set themselves apart in being a variety of decorative, luxurious chocolates for special events throughout the year.
As such, here are a few unique (and possibly even farfetched) ideas for using boxes of chocolate as pieces of decor around your house this holiday season.
The Table Centerpiece
Meals around the holidays are special because you and your family, who may have not seen one another for a long time, are meeting up to dine, talk, and even exchange gifts.
Oftentimes, garland adorns the center of the dining table, usually surrounding some sort of #holiday #decoration, candle, or fruit assortment. Rather than having something typical sit in the center that you can’t interact with, candy draws the attention of your guests, provides them with a pre- or post-meal snack, and shows you really put forth some effort this year when hosting the family feast.
Tree Decorations on Christmas Day
I remember always searching the tree on Christmas Day for extra #gifts that were never present beneath the tree during the month leading up to Christmas. Some families have traditions like this where there’s a pickle hidden and the first person to find it gets the extra gift. Other families like my own may simply place the extra gifts for whomever up in the tree.
Candy boxes placed in the tree could be a great way to introduce a new aspect to your family tradition and takes no preparation at all.
Doorway Treats
Lots of homes have tables or desks placed by the front door just inside the house. Sometimes candles adorn them. Sometimes lamps. Often, though, there’s an open space there and the table is merely meant for decoration. Why not put a box of chocolates in that space as treats for family and friends who come over during the holidays? Whether they’re entering or leaving, it’s a fun little treat to be greeted to or say farewell to.

I used green cardstock flourishes and 3 cut flowers (all sSilhouette designs) to decorate this package. It's nice that flat package embellishment s don't get squished in transit!

I'm a sucker for beautifully designed packaging.
These dark chocolate raspberry sticks were good too! Love the big 'ole raspberry on the left.

In this beautiful land, it is possible to find colorful Andean valleys, snowy peaks, rivers, waterfalls, the beautiful Andean jungle, Inca and pre-Inca sites, and several Andean communities. These Andean communities are connected by thousands of paths. Some of these paths have been used before the Spaniards arrived to Peru. One of these paths is the one connecting the Andean valley of Mollepata with the Santa Teresa town located in the Andean Jungle. This path is well-known as the Salkantay Trek.

After creating the logo jewelry, I created a honeycomb-shaped package to reflect the "Be(e) Yourself" brand I developed.
I got the most beautiful package of delightful treats in the mail today from the incredibly kind Mr. sussexfocus himself. It was a lovely trade of American and British teas and goodies.
But I think I made out like a bandit on my end with all the fabulous items I received.
So I had to do my photo for today in appreciation of such thoughtfulness and of course have a proper Alice in Wonderland tea at 5pm.
Many thanks Duncs for the lovely parcel.

The main aim of every #retailer and #manufacturer is to ensure that their products result in business growth and consumer satisfaction. It is a no-brainer that a damaged package can hurt your business reputation quite badly, and it can result in a negative impact on your bottom line. This impact can range from a loss of hundreds to millions of dollars, depending on the size and #production level of your business.
While packaging damage to a small extent is not a cause of concern, too much of this damage is a red flag and requires careful auditing to determine the reason and time. Contacting #packaging experts can help you determine why and when packaging damage occurs.
You can audit your product packaging as a preventative measure if you haven’t yet received complaints of damaged products and packages. According to some studies, companies tend to spend 80% of their time reacting and responding to #product damage reports rather than working on preventive measures. In this article, we will discuss top recommendations on how to prevent packaging damage.
Stocking the right SKUs
Before a product enters the packaging line, you have to make sure that you have the right packaging materials to welcome it. Stocking the right packaging and protective supplies allows you to ship your products safely to your customers. You will, however, have to see the availability of different materials and see if they are optimized for your #shipping needs. You will also have to see how often you run out of packaging #supplies.
Knowing the right way to pack
This step involves educating your packaging personnel with the proper packing instructions provided by a packaging expert. You will have to be particularly careful about this step if you have established a ship-from-store mechanism. Whether you have a distribution center or a retail store, teaching your packaging employees the right packaging method will help prevent product and package damage during transit.
Void-fill solutions
Protecting the products inside boxes is just as necessary as using a sturdy outer packaging container. It can be ensured with the help of protective packaging supplies. Options to consider in this regard may include bubble wrap, airbags, paper, and foam packaging. Because your product is different from others, you have to make sure that the protective packaging supplies you use fit your needs precisely.
Shrinkwrap
Securing your products for shipping can help prevent the risk of damage by 50%. You can shrink-wrap your products to provide them a secure, air-tight seal. The integrity of your product will also remain intact this way. You will also have to pay attention to using the right shrink wrap equipment.
Foam inserts
If your products are prone to damage due to vibration, you may need to use foam inserts to absorb the vibration impact. Remember, the ‘Fragile’ label on the box will not be of a significant benefit if you haven’t ensured product protection. These inserts work nicely when used with electronics or other fragile items. The best thing about foam inserts is that you can optimize them to form-fit around any product.
Packaging found with a collection of Russian World War II posters in a box at our library.
Further investigation revealed that they are all part of the "TASS Windows," a propaganda campaign that relied on a large team of artists and authors working around the clock to hang stenciled (hand-painted & assembled) posters in shop windows to keep the public informed during the war. For more information, check out my set that illustrates the exhibit I put up. There are several links in the descriptions there that will take you to some scholarly research and a bibliography of further resources I compiled using Worldcat.org's list tool.
I bought a new HP OfficeJet Pro 8000. Not really a big printer, but have a look what tons of packaging it needs...
Biodegradable food packaging that encourages families to eat together.
It is widely acknowledged that the dining table is an important place for the socialisation and civilisation of children, and meals around it play a fundamental role in teaching them how to behave properly. Unfortunately, in today’s society the traditional role of the dining table is declining as families increasingly feel the need for a dual income, which results in less time to prepare and enjoy family meals. I have designed a takeaway food packaging system that aims to encourage the family to get back around the dining table and away from the television.
The bag unfolds into a tablecloth by simply pulling the handles away from one another, leaving the card packaged food, wooden plates and cutlery neatly presented in the centre of the table. The food can then be enjoyed without the need of preparation or washing up, leaving the family free to socialise with one another.
