Is that really what consumers want? I'm a realist, too, so maybe. But ouch!

Actually it could be the way I started making crafts! Since I was very young I have always customized the package for the present and/or the person who`s gonna have it, in fact I never give it with the shop`s packaging. And now that I also make the present itself, imagine! We could say that the package is the ephimeral crafting, some ours later of doing it`s going to be destroyed, but who cares, it`s a part of the present, you spend time doing it for a person, I think it`s all of this is beautiful!
