Packaging
There is no shortage of options for containing your Merry Christmas care package, with many sizes of boxes, baskets, and other types of containers. If you follow my care package blog posts, you’ll notice I almost always us the same box. I love this box for a few reasons:
- Size – big enough to put several items in, but small enough to affordably fill it up.
- Style of opening – I like how the flap opens at the top and the nice space on the top flap, perfect for decorating
- Color – The white box color gives it an elevated look.
I ordered my boxes here from Amazon. After shopping around at ULine and others, I found this to be the best deal after factoring in the free shipping that I receive with Amazon Prime.
These boxes are 10″ x 7″ x 4″. As you pick your boxes, think through all three dimensions. It was important to me to have at least 3.5″ in height so that I wouldn’t be too limited on what would fit into the box.

Printable Card Stock
I use this white printable card stock to print out my care package printables at home. This card stock is smooth and accepts the ink well. It’s competitively priced and comes out to a low per sheet cost. I used to buy white card stock at Hobby Lobby at 50% off. It printed alright, but there were often streaks and some spots from time to time. The linked card stock above actually comes out cheaper than the discounted Hobby Lobby card stock.
