A bit of Luxury

I walked into the house and a parcel greeted me on the mat (I love parcels)
Anyway after peeling back the wrapping I found a golden box on opening the box I saw cream tissue paper layered and sealed with a gold sticker I carefully peeled back the tissue to reveal the ribbons inside each ribbon was carefully wrapped in a thin piece of ribbon and a label attached saying was it was (how sweet is that?)
It isn't very often that a company goes the extra mile these days but I have to tell you I was more than thrilled with this parcel.
The ribbons are very high quality and worth every penny paid for them I will definitely use this company again.
Oh yes the company The Ribbon Shop



I think my button buying is becoming an obsession.
The button shown were bought from my local knitting shop.

How sweet. Love things packaged nicely - one of the reasons I like Liz Earle, individually packed in tissue with flower labels.
The polka dot buttons are cute, very into dotty things.

I agree, Jak,it is so nice when retailers go the extra mile and present their orders so elegantly. I have now added this site to my favourites and will certainly consider using them in the future- thanks for sharing.

A girl can never have enough cute buttons. I do recognize some from my own stack.

What a pretty box. When my MIL died and the family gathered to go through the house, the only thing I asked for was the big box of buttons. I carried them home in my backpack and had some explanations to make to security at the airport but it makes me smile whenever I use one of them.

No wonder you were so pleased with the way the ribbons were packaged Jak, i agree nice to see a company take so much care of their items. I too am a button person, i have hundreds of them. Not as pretty as yours though.
