If they don’t have it at Uline, they don’t make it…
We’ll that’s not completely true, I’ve never found a better resource for finding just the right container. Uline is actually one of the largest online resources for shipping supplies and packaging for companies. While you do have to purchase in large quantities, the pricing makes it all worth it. While orders are shipped directly to you same-day, we’re lucky in DFW because you can go pick yours up directly at one of their shipping centers based in Coppell. Just take a look at just a few samples of fun containers I’ve found for gift giving and they’re also the ideal resource for favor boxes for birthday parties.
For dad’s day I used this paint can and filled it full of candy – then wrote “Dad’s Stache” for a candy basket that he’ll love. Also, you can source something basic like a blank gift sack and then let the kids create their own special packaging with paint, colors, etc. that dad might love more than the gift!
