my little gifts of x'mas - DIY bath bomb packaging

now i have bath bomb in hand... i need to package these little fragile bursts of fragrance safely and attractively... worthy of being part of the gift display under any x'mas tree...



first they have to be individually wrapped to seal in the essential oils - both the fragrance and the oiliness of it...
i need oil proof paper - baking paper is the answer
after much experimentation with the paper shape... i finally settled on the pentagon...






the neatly packaged triagular bath bombs are each sealed with a cardboard name tag... much has to be improved on the tag-graphics...

then it is time for the box/ bag holding the bath bomb trio... after much experimentation (again)... this is the template i came up with...

this will be how the sides are to be held together... 2 slits on 2 triangles...



it works...
a ribbon for the handle and to make it look gift-like...

bombs are in...


"may all your worries of 2009 melt away..."
"wishing you a happy & relax 2010!"

now i just have to make a dozen or more or them...
