  • @karenmcnall

    @karenmcnall

    4 жыл бұрын

    Hi Rebecca. I'm sorry that you think the plastic packaging is unnecessary. I have found that for my craft fairs, keeping items that I sell clean can, at times, be a challenge with sticky hands or anything that is wet as ink smears when it gets a bit wet. The packaging also adds a finishing touch.
