This is being dropped off tomorrow. Just an idea. I get the sturdy box covers from Aldi's. They're perfect for quick deliveries without 'crowding' in another type of box. Just for fun I took a picture of them. And one using Rich's lavender foil. Came out perfect/matching.

And there's the acrylic stands...bad picture, but you get the idea.

Wow - 500 wrappers all in one place.... I'm so new I've never even seen anything like this before.... can't wait until it's me!

Where can I find the link to order the acrylic stands? I looked at RogerWraps' site but couldn't find them.

Lee,
I'm impressed! They're beautiful and I'm happy you got a great order like that..
Can I ask how you priced them? At what amt. did you offer a discount?

LOL Congrats Lee!!!!!!! what a picture that is!!!

Congrats Lee. Who placed the order for so many bars? I assume it's one of your corporate accounts. I would love to get an order that size!! Way to go, they look great!!

Awesome job Lee ...that is so cool that you got an order that big. Nice work on your bars and the foil does stands out good with the wrapper. Once again very nice.

How wonderful - you guys want to make me quit my day job -
they are so beautiful.

Wow that is incredible. I can't wait until I get an order like that someday.

Great job, Lee! That is a lot of wrapping! What type of paper do you use? I love how it is shiny!

Lee, I am speechless. You did a great job, I can't wait to get an order like that. How long did it take you to do it all from printing to finished wrapper?

P.S. Hey those are some nice stands you have there!!

I mainly posted those pics to give you an idea on 'packing' ideas. I didn't want to pack them into large boxes and have the bottom ones hold the weight. They're fragile as it is. Yes, this is one of my corporate accounts. I do all the holidays and inbetween. They are very good to me. This order had a basket to go with. Then repeating on Father's Day, same thing. I don't think the Dad's would want the daisies on the wrapper though...

And I'm flipped out over Rich's foil so much. I love it and working with it. Ordered different colors.

You guys shoulda been here 2 weeks ago when I did 1000 Hershey Nuggets for them. Talk about wrapping?...they are consistent with their orders, and no...no discount. They have the money in the corporate account for this. They don't want me to discount. They like my product and want me to make money doing it.

I'll post the basket, gnats didn't take pictures with the wrapping and bough. Chris knows, I was so-o nervous about this basket thing...but it turned good. When they had bough making in school, I think I was with the boys climbing trees back then...Did some minor alterations before wrapping. They're raffling off the basket to one woman in the building. I guess it's ok. Looked better with the cellophane and draping bough.

Hey, you like those, huh? Wanna buy some???

Good job! The bars and basket look great.

can't wait to get something that big Lee!!! guess you will be retiring the will wrap for food sign LOL

No, not really. You know how people have that perpetual For Sale By Owner sign on their front lawn (right, Jude?). Well, I have the Will Wrap For Food out there. On occasion my son plays the accordian, when he doesn't have homework.

wow lee you been busy i knew you were not on the much this part week. how long did it take you to do 500 bars you did a good job with them. i am glad that you got a company that comes back and orders so much how did you get them? wondering how on to market. any ideas?

Well, that's the luck of the Irish. My son-in-law is one of the Building Engineers there. He recommended me. So, no, I didn't market. Just lucky. I'd say about 3 days (well, maybe into 4 days) from design, print, cut, foil and wrap/to box. I think. I don't stay at it for a real long time. I get 'antsy'. Plus, I have grass to cut, laundry. Then I go back to it.

WOW 500 bars, talk about tired. Not that I would mind that kind of tired;) You did a great job on the bars and the basket also. I love the will wrap for food sign, need to put it in my front yard..lol. If zoning laws allowed me that is.:) *Michelle*

Wow, the basket is beautiful!! You didn't make 500 baskets too, did you????

Very impressive Lee....a terrific job!! Kudos to you!!!

wow good job and how long did that take?

Surprisingly, the basket I did in about an hour. That was easier than I thought. I'm always nervous about something I've never done before. The container doesn't show up well in the picture. It was nice, silver and gold trim. About 3 days to finish the bars, but not constant. I walk away and do other things. I have a system because of their large orders...

I wanted to add, check out your Aldi's if you have one, there's so many ideas for 'delivery containers'. Tops of cartons, candy boxes with names of the candy. They make very inexpensive/cute delivery containers. Makes it look like you're in the candy business...lol

Great job Lee
No wonder you haven't been around.

I've missed you but with an order like that you don't need to just chat with all of us out here.


Love, Queen Mum
