Let’s talk about packaging!

If you have already received a delivery from me, you will have seen this before

I use brown kraft cardboard and paper in all my packaging because these pieces are for everyone, every day – not for fancy special occasions.

I think my packaging is cute so is my niece, who likes to help some days. I have made an enormous effort to lower the impact of my packaging on the planet; it is plastic-free, recycled material where possible and fully recyclable. I use honeycomb paper, a super alternative to bubble wrap and plain brown boxes and paper, with less initial processing and easier recycling.

I started drawing little houses on the parcels when I couldn’t get my stickers during lockdown 1.0, and I love them, so they stayed; I hope you love them too!

If you have any ideas on improving my packaging and service, I would love to hear from you!

Sarah McKenna has been developing her unique handmade Irish pottery at Bridge Street Studios since 1999. Before returning to Dundalk she studied Ceramics at Duncan of Jordonstone College of Art & Design, the University of Dundee, Scotland where she gained a Bachelor of Ceramic Design.

Sarah’s work has always been engaged in the process and the early studio work was concerned with smoke firing and raku firing sculptural vessel forms. In 2006 Sarah started producing a range of quirky customisable ceramics giftware which is the beginning of what you can purchase today. Read more here.
