Bubblewrap - time killer

We go through a ton of bubble wrap to package our chalkboard products so I went and researched who the genius was that invented the material.

It turns out that bubble wrap was first marketed as wallpaper but it proved unsuccessful. The company then turned it's focus on packaging and voila - the rest as they say is history.

Since it's invention in 1960 alot of people have found alternative uses for the product. The first being stress relief.

A friend told me that she bought her son a very expensive dvd and instead of watching it with her he played with the bubble wrap for the rest of the evening.

Have a look at some of the clever uses people have found for bubble wrap.

Enjoy your own company

It has been such an amazing journey to get to the point of having tested our product and how having registered as a Pty Ltd.



Although it seems that with the official title a heap of paper work appeared from nowhere. I have signed my signature more times in the past two weeks than ever before. Luckily I needed the practice and think I've now perfected it.

We have started doing viral campaigns and have had great response so far but hats off to OLX that's still our biggest portal for gaining new customers. From wine farms to butchers have been contacting us from this awesome site (or maybe it's our great pictures?).

Currently we are working on developing five new products to our range. Exciting new designs not currently avaliable in the market place.

The big reveal will happen at the 'Wellington Huismark' at Napier Winery, Bainskloof from 25 to 28 July this year.

Hope to see you all there!
