We've all been there; struggling to make a good gift great. You don't have a ton of money to shell out but you want to make this gift special. Instead of stressing about the what, think about the how—how will the gift be delivered? Will it be in an Amazon box + CVS bought wrapping paper? Or maybe wrapping isn't your thing so you go straight gift bag. Regardless, if you spend some more time thinking about the box, your gifts can elevate to a whole new level.
This list is a collection of fun and creative "gift boxes" you can package your presents in. Always remember that part of the gifting experience is the moment the gift is received as well. That moment can be bigger than the actual gift and that is okay. Because at the end of the day, your goal is to make the other person happy.
Foodies — nothing beats a taco made with local ingredients from a food truck serving from an Airstream Trailer. If you're gifting a new kitchen gadget or fun foodie find, place it in this tin Airstream lunch box.
Bookworms — Maybe books are their thing. That's cool. Whether its a piece of jewelry inspired by their favorite sci-fi series or a Page Anchor to keep their book propped open while they are reading in the tub, a hollowed out book makes the perfect vessel to house your gift.
Travelers — Wheels up and clasps closed. For the travel junkie you can't go wrong with packaging their gift in this mini-vintage suitcase. Whether it's tickets to a far away destination or simply an Airbnb gift card, this vintage case will blow them away.
Movie Buffs — there is nothing more classic than the look, feel and sound of an old VHS case. We can remember the top of our TV console that housed some of our favorite flicks you watched over and over and over again—much to the dismay of our parents. This "90's kids only" gift box can be found on Etsy or at your local Goodwill for only a couple dollars and is the perfect case for any gift that tugs on the nostalgia heart strings.
