The Fine Art of Packaging

The White Aisle is a small stationary company out of New Hamshire that resembles all that is classy and beautiful. These are my purchases that I absolutely could not resist this last summer. As I pulled out my last 'thank you' card (sniff sniff), I took a moment to reflect on the exquisite packaging and the implied value it creates.


Golden Nugget Bath Crystals

I tried to resist these cute little button soaps but to no avail (I need no more soap, probably for an entire lifetime). Notice the tiny button on the ribbon matches the soaps. I love the extra attention to detail.

My staff roll their eyes every time I buy more cards (see another card splurge here). They "forbid" me to by more cards until I use what I have (which is a glorious drawer full). They did give me grief for this purchase but, I just couldn't help myself. You all know I'm sucker for good design! And, the cards are all gone now ... so, I'll definitely be needing more!
