Good packaging can make a modest gift look generous. It also keeps small items together and makes handing out gifts quicker.
Bags
- Potli bags: traditional drawstring pouches, ideal for ladies’ functions and poojas.
- Jute bags: sturdy and reusable, good for weddings and housewarmings.
- Paper bags: budget-friendly for birthdays and large functions.
- Organza pouches: light and pretty for small items like diyas or sweets.
Boxes
Kraft or printed boxes work for sweets, dry fruits and fragile items. Check that the box size fits the gift before ordering in bulk.
Finishing touches
- A ribbon in your function’s colour
- A thank-you tag (see our message ideas)
- A sticker with the name and date
Budget tip
Count packaging in your per-piece budget. A ₹40 gift in a ₹10 bag is a ₹50 return gift. Our under ₹50 page has ideas that leave room for packaging.
