Packaging Inspiration

Thought I would end the week with some packaging inspiration ~ someone at work had purchased these at a flea market, so I borrowed them to take a few photos as I had never seen anything like this before.  Those clever Victorians!  What a great way to package hat pins ~ plus the graphics are lovely as well ~ you can see I kind of got carried away!

Hat pins aren't that easy to find, so to find some in their original packaging is very unusual ~ now that I know they exist, I am going to keep my eyes peeled for a set for myself.
