    I usually pack 2 to 4s in the plastic go boxes. I find the plastic ones squish stuffies really well. I just uploaded today 3 2 to 4 unboxings in the plastic go boxes. This box is so fun! Love her little toys and her bracelet. Her dress is gorgeous! Great tips 💕

      Thanks SusannaMarie! Yes, I do think it is easier to pack the 2-4’s in these boxes. But once you figure out how to pack in them and let go of the idea that we need to include everything, they are awesome to pack in! Sturdy and such great quality! Loved your unboxings yesterday too! TFW! 💕

    I love that you pack in these plastic shoeboxes. I have a pack of them and I have to use them. lol Because they are too small for the shoeboxes I want to pack. But I will try! This is a great example of a packed OCC plastic shoebox. Love the Gabby doll. You found a lot of Gabby items! I love that you included the TY beanie baby from DT. My favorite is the dress. It's amazing you fit a whole dress in the container. Such an adorable shoebox! Thanks for sharing how you pack this type of container. Thanks Denise!! 🐈🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛

      These are not easy to pack in but such a gift to the child. I struggle too! These Gabby boxes are some of my favorites. There were so many Gabby items in clearance this year!!!! Thanks for watching friend and Happy Halloween🎃

    The boxes are also sold at Hobby Lobby during this season. The dress is really adorable as is the doll. Thanks for sharing.

      Yes! I did include that information in my description about Hobby lobby but forgot to mention it in the video. Thank you so much!

    This style of container has become my favorite. I actually sometimes put the pencil case on the side of the box instead of the bottom. Very informative video, especially for those who are either new or not used to packing in this type of box. I even got some clarifying information from watching the video.

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great idea to pack the pencil case in the side! I like that too! I’m so glad the video is helpful! I know these boxes can be a bit of a challenge to some. Thank you for watching! 💕

    Oh, thank you for sharing! The Gabby dress is precious. I have packed a couple of Gabby boxes. Now I'm working on filler packs for 10 dolls that I got on that Amazon special. The dolls are so cute❤
    😂😂😂😂I just had to take a break and feed my special needs cat. She is very vocal and uses her stare down technique because her bowl is empty!

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oh I completely understand a demanding kitty. I have one that is very vocal at night until we go to bed. 😹Great to hear you are working on filler! Me too! I love Gabby boxes… I even have a few more to pack! I found quite a bit of clearance this year. Thanks for watching Patricia!

    The Gabby doll and dress
    are darling! I love these plastic boxes too! I don’t use them often because of the price, but sometimes a couple friends will pick up a couple for me from their church and I love it 🤗. I have been using organza bags less and less for that very reason. You would not think it would add that much bulk but they do when stuffed with underwear. Such a cute box. Love everything. Great packing! You packed a ton lol

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks Val! Yes, when you bunch up those undies in an organza bag they tend to take up more space even though the privacy is nice. But when space is a premium, you do what ya gotta do! 😂 I love these boxes too but you are right… they are higher in price so I can only afford so many each year. TFW! 💕

    Hi Denise! Love your Gabby box!! The Gabby Doll looks so cute. I always liked those casual dresses for little girls. I used to buy them for my daughter from Lands End. I find the plastic box quite a challenge to pack.

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hey Della! They are a challenge indeed but such a great quality! Once I learned how to pack in them, I loved them more and more! Oh that dress…. My favorite this year! I bought 3 of them! 💕

    Wonderful box! Great advice as well! I use the sterilite boxes and their lids snap on as well. They are only a little over a dollar per box.

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I bought several sterilite this year also. Definitely less expensive than these! Packing is still a challenge in them for me! But they are a great gift!

    Great video on how to pack in the plastic OCC box!!! Our blessing was selling at our local flea market for OCC shipping costs and making the money and a family member gave an awesome contribution towards shipping. We packed close to 150 boxes and have prayed for God's provision on the shipping costs. I am " Granny of the Shoeboxes" as this is our ministry as we love to serve Jesus!!!

    I love the shirt you are wearing.😊
    I've always wanted to try these plastic shoeboxes...we dont have them here but if i ever go to the States at the right time if year, I'm picking some up!
    This box teminds me of my Holly because she adores that mermaid kitty from the cartoon.🩷
    The dress is so adorable and I love the touch you added with the keychain teddy on tye backpack. 🎒
    Good job showing the grooves at the bottom!
    Thanks for sharing this adorable shoebox, friend.🐈🐾🧜🏽‍♀️

      That mermaid kitty is so cute! I just purchased one on Amazon today for next year’s box! lol…. I filmed two unboxings in the same shirt I was wearing.🤦🏻‍♀️it’s so comfortable! I love these plastic boxes but they are more expensive than the cardboard boxes but such a nice gift! Thanks for watching and commenting Diana! 💕

    You do a fabulous job with all your boxes and sharing your tips are a great help. I'm wondering where did you find the deflated soccer balls? All I see are the big inflated ones. I have trouble with my wrists and cant deflate enough out. Thanks for sharing your experiences and wisdom.

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Thank you so much! I find balls deflated online. Recently from WOW Supplies but I’ve also found them on Amazon and Walmart online. You can also go to Five Below(if you have one) and ask them for a deflated ball from the back. I’ve done this before too. Hope that helps! Feel free to ask me anything else. 💕

      @@drogers Thank you so much!!! I've got a soccer themed box and no ball !!
      I was thinking I would have to leave that box out till next year and just send the rest. I'm going to try 5 below today! Bless you sister!! 🙏

  • @dmoore8557
    @dmoore8557 29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Quick question - if your shoebox is a little too full to close, is it acceptable to use a vacuum seal bag to 'deflate' a stuffie so it's flatter until opened, or does everything need to be loose?

    • @drogers
      @drogers  29 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, this is allowed!
