Beautiful new FL@33-designed packaging
***

Launched just a few months ago – our new matchbox-style gift boxes come in three sizes. The smallest is for 1–5 button badges and our sets of three, four and five are now available in such a beautiful gift box. Orders of individual badge designs will automatically be pinned by us into one of the three gift boxes. The medium size is used for button badge quantities from 6–16 while the largest gift box can hold up to 25 badges.

Curently we 'only' transformed our sets into these new gift boxes. They are now called Artist Gift Boxes: 3–5 button badges. In the future we will also introduce Themed Gift Boxes: 3–5 button badges featuring more than one artist in one gift box. Four different dogs or cats for example created by various artists...

Our existing Gift Boxes: 7 button badges have now also been differentiated accordingly. There are now 29 Themed and 29 Artist ones of those...
