I’m having a clear out and have a box of 49 kraft brown packaging boxes, 10x10x5cm (4x4x2"), that I’ve never used (apart from 1 out of the box of 50 that I used to store logo stamps in!). I bought them for sending rings, but I’ve never sold any rings online and have moved all my selling offline now. The boxes cost £20 on Amazon, so it would be nice to recoup a little fraction of that. Maybe I should make a listing here, rather than just posting on the forum (against the rules, maybe?), but I can’t find any other listings for packing boxes etc. on Folksy, so maybe it’s not the sort of thing that’ll get searched for and seen here? I’m asking £8.00 + £3.95 P&P (Hope everyone’s well btw - I do still check in on the forums from time to time!) ![DSC_0627](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/folksy/original/3X/5/e/5e1d78fa1d7e16207bde9d48913fe4d2fd59e093.jpeg) Original Amazon listing [here](https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08YCYYXTJ) ---

Perhaps you could list them on Folksy as supplies, see below ![Screenshot_20260810-181658_Chrome](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/folksy/original/3X/1/3/1344ec59b0a14c845f348877bd80bbd7d4e6951f.jpeg) Or you could offer them on here, I’m thinking of doing the same as I have an assortment of greeting cards and envelopes I need to get rid of. ---

Hi Carrie. Are you the lady who fixed a bike up to ride around the countryside selling your jewellery? If so, how are you getting on? Well, I hope. Jan ---

I am, and thanks for asking! It’s going well (though the weather’s not been brilliant here in N Scotland this summer - a far cry from the rest of the country from the look of it!). I re-designed my displays this year, and branched out from selling mostly sea glass as I was before, and I think it’s a bit better now. I have some photos on my camera from my last outing that I haven’t looked at yet, so maybe I’ll upload a pic tomorrow! xx ---

It is good to hear an update. Pleased your venture is doing well. Look forward to seeing a photo. ---

Completely forgot to put some photos up yesterday! I’m going to see if I can find some craft fairs for the autumn and the run up to Christmas, and I’m hoping I can find some that’ll let me use the bike instead of setting up a table. It’s amazing how much you can fit on a bike! ![IMG_5525](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/folksy/original/3X/6/8/68276dec06c6a1c27ef40e25bdd3c91d7f1cd9bf.jpeg) ![IMG_5530](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/folksy/original/3X/6/8/682c2466bab205163f66f3ae371ca5a886d5dc59.jpeg) ![IMG_5526](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/folksy/original/3X/c/e/ce7b755b9012b40d34707197c1c8f2e6ed39b2ab.jpeg) ---

Hi Carrie, lovely photos of your bike in full selling mode - it looks incredible and I think it would be a huge draw at a craft fair. I have bought surplus packaging from another Folksy seller - it was via a listing in the supplies section, but they did promote it here in the Forum first, which is where I found it (we used to have a few destash posts on the go at one time). I sell most of my destash supplies via eB\*y, so you may also want to list your boxes there.
