Fell asleep last night watching your videos and watched them this morning while eating breakfast. I am sincerely trying to learn how to pack as beautiful and effectively as you do. I have a ton of items as I do this year around, it's just the putting together that I want to become more educated with creative and helpful tips. Thanks for taking the time to share your lovely boxes.
Thanks Marie for your lovely thoughts and comments. I’m so happy to hear the videos are helpful! Exactly my goal. That’s funny because I often watch videos in bed and fall asleep while watching! 😁 They are soothing to me. Putting boxes together sometimes comes so naturally for me and other times I struggle. There’s no magic potion. Just keep packing! It will come! 💕
Hello Denise, This a gorgeous box for Miss 5-9. I can see you had a lot of fun with these dolls, including designing their outfits. Even your nail polish matches the wash cloth! 💅 The year round packing with the large storage bags makes it so easy to keep items organised. I tend to reuse my bags, which is another way to keep costs down. I look forward to seeing the unboxing of the Corgi and Sea 🐢.
Thank you Fiona! I did have fun! Just call me Miss Fairy clothes designer. I really did enjoy it! I reuse the big bags also! They do help me gather items year round. Oh the sea turtle box will definitely be ready…. We will have to see about that corgi though. 🦮🦮🦮😃😃😃Thank you for watching!
I've used those big bags for sorting craft supplies for years , so naturally I grabbed them to use as I purchased items for this years boxes. I am glad to know that target has the 6 count . I normally find only the 5 count at Dollar Tree. These 3 boxes are going to be huge hits with the girls who receive them. My favorites are the purses and skirts you made. Such a personal touch.
Thanks Tracy! I think the bags at Target have more than 6! Next time I go, I will check and let you know! And thank you for watching. I loved creating these magical Fairy boxes! 💜💜💜
The washcloth you made is so cute! I love the wooden dolls and the little harmonica!! This box is so coordinated, I need to start collecting into big ziplocks like this. It’s been a challenge finding a way to store everything. ❤ thanks for sharing!
Thank you! It’s always a challenge for me to store stuff too but the big baggie idea does really help. The washcloths are so easy and fun to find fabric for! Thanks so much for watching Julie! 💜💜💜
Wow what a great idea! I was trying to figure out how to keep my themed items together. Love the Tiana themed shoeboxes. Wish I could found those Fairy dolls.
I do enjoyed this!! I’m so looking forward to seeing your boxes next year already! I use the large bag method also and it works so well for me! And I love the fairy boxes. I didn’t score that deal but I’m so glad so many did!!
Thanks Christine! I was very blessed with those Fairies! I hope more deals come out next year like that one! Prices have gone up sooooo much! Yikes! Well I love seeing your boxes in reels! Love love love them!!
Oh! The little outfits/purses for the fairy dolls are the cutest things ever!! The magnetic wooden dolls are amazing gifts for these little girls! These boxes are so sweet and definitely some of my favorites of yours! They are so you and reflective of your personality. I just love all the pinks and purple colors. I bought 7 of the sets of fairy dolls lol. Why - because I had to spend $35 to get free shipping as I am not a Walmart member. So, I packed some this year. I saved some for next year. And, I am donating about half of them as filler. They were the best deal ever!
Wow!!!! 21 dolls?? They were such a great deal right? So nice of you to donate as filler! What a blessing! I have one more box of 3 to pack. I’m saving for next year. Thank you so much for your kind words on the boxes reflecting my personality. I really do try to do that. From the heart you know. You do that too! ❤
Thanks Maritza! These were so fun for me to put together. When I get really excited about a theme, it can take me no time to put it together. I hadn’t really thought about it but yes… 3 dolls and a plush are a nice play combo! TFW and commenting friend! ❤
I didn’t try it in this one I tried it on the one I’m keeping 😭😭😭😭. I’m dying😭. Live fairy boxes and those dolls are so beautiful! Where in the world did you find that nesting eraser??? I love nesting dolls! Such a great idea to make a skirt and that purse is super adorable. The wooden dolls are fabulous and will last forever! My hubby has wooden toys brought over from Cuba that is still in good shape! You packed sooo many things in here, I have no clue how you get everything in a standard OCC box. Thanks for sharing this sweet girly box!
The Russian nesting doll is really a pencil cap from Raymond Geddes. So cute right? I love wooden toys. I think they can last such a long time and be a keepsake. At least I hope so. They are from Costco! Oh creative packing is definitely a skill. I’ve gotten better at it over the years and working at the PC also gives me good practice. These were very fun to put together and I was so excited that my ideas for them came quickly. You know how that is!!!! TFW Friend!
Love this, Denise! Thanks for sharing your process of starting themes. It's basically the same for me too, however, not as organized. lol. When I get it together, I will use those zip bloc bags for started themes. Right now, even with started themes with just a few items, they are in shoeboxes. And they take up WAY too much space. Especially since, I probably won't finish for the following OCC season. I can't wait to see your Corgi theme next year. Also, love your fairy boxes. I bought the same fairies but haven't even started yet - they are still in the boxes. Whoah, the harmonica necklace is super cool! My favorite is the skirt and matching purse you made for the fairy. You are so talented! Great finds with the fairy paintin color and coloring books from DT. I never saw any like that at my DTs. Another favorite is the wash cloth you made. The fabric is perfect and so pretty. Oh, my niece loves wooden magnet dolls. So I know these girls will love those sets. The fairy hair ties are so adorable. I like how every box has their own color butterfly headband, and purse/skirt. Beautiful shoeboxes, Denise! 🧚🧚♂🧚♀💙💜💗
Thanks Sharon! Good to hear your niece loves wooden dolls like this. I said they were hard to pack only because of their stands and extra clothes… but actually pretty easy because they lay flat. Yeah, if I tried to put items in shoeboxes rather than bags, my house would be overflowing. It’s overflowing as it is!!😂The big bags work pretty well for me. Well I can’t wait to see how your fairy boxes turn out! I know they will be awesome! Thanks for watching. These were very fun to do!
Very sweet shoeboxes, Denise. What a great idea, to make skirts and bags for the fairy dolls. You must have the patience of Job to make those little doll purses. So tiny. So cute. Love the magnetic wooden dolls. I never saw them last year. Either that or I missed them. I’ll have to see if I can grab some this year, maybe. No surprise, we collect themes the exact same way 😂😂.
Thanks Trish. Once I started making the first skirt and bag, I was so excited that I made them all in one sitting. They were so cute and I had the fabric and lace already. I just saw the wooden dolls again at Costco. Of course the price has gone up. Be sure to check online also. I think that’s how I got mine last year. Yeah, the baggie technique works very well for me. I’ve been doing it this way since I started doing themes many years ago. No surprise we do it the same. 😂 TFW! ❤
Super awesome box :) I wish coloring books here come with crayons, it would help me keep my supply steady and not having all my reds and blues run out but purples and oragnes brand new lolll
Thanks Math! I love the ones that come with crayons. But I still add another box of crayons with them. 4 crayons is just not enough! Right? Thanks for watching friend!
Hi Denise, I love watching your videos. I want to pass along to you that CTA (Christ to All) Publcations offers many unique items for very reasonable prices. I am about to order a little foam, two-sided nativity puzzle that comes in a carrying bag for $1.19. Blessings to you.
I love CTA and I get their catalog! Thanks for letting me know about the puzzles! I love their crank flashlights! Thank you so much for watching! Blessings to you too!!
OMGosh those skirts and purses are darling!!!! I love those magnetic dolls they are so sweet. I wish I was able to snag a few more of those fairy dolls they are so beautiful. So my question is how do you remember what you have in your bags? I pretty much do the same thing with the bags and I have quite a few but sometimes I forget what I've got in them and end up buying dups. Thank you for this video it's extremely helpful.
Hi Bonnie. Well at times I’ve put the information on my phone. Usually I just list what I need. Sometimes I’m bad at it though… working full time and RU-vid takes up a lot of my time. When I accidentally double up on something, I DO return it. It does happen. But the lists help me tremendously. Great question Bonnie! Thank you for asking! I hope this helps!
@@drogers Yes it totally helps. I'm going to start making lists on my phone that a great idea thank you. I need to return my dups sometimes I'm just lazy about it so it ends up in misc tubs.
