Supplies You Will Need For Packing
NECESSARY SUPPLIES:
If you ship Priority Mail, you will need the following supplies:
USPS VHS sized boxes - These boxes are available for free from your local post office. Better yet, you can order them online through usps.gov and they will deliver them for free! This link will take you tookay's USPS Shipping Zone.At the bottom of the page, click on the Order Shipping Supplies page to be directed to the usps.gov website. Click on the For Mailing/Shipping drop down box. Select Priority Mail, then go to Page 2. The box measures 8.625" x 5.375" x 1.625", and is the perfect size for shipping vintage costume jewelry safely. Several pieces of jewelry will fit gefortably in one of these boxes, but the box isn't too big for a single ring or pair of earrings. They are also small enough to fit in most residential mail boxes and USPS mail drop boxes.
Plain White Tissue Paper - Tissue paper is available in many sizes and weights. I use heavy 20" X 30" tissue paper for padding boxes, and lighter 18" x 24" tissue paper for wrapping delicate beads and necklaces. Both are available on okay. You can find bulk quantities of white tissue paper on okay. Here's a tip: Stock up on packages of plain white tissue paper at discount stores during post holiday clearance sales.
Zip Top Baggies - Zip top baggies help to protect delicate coatings, platings and finishes; catch loose stones
