p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · My USB Presentation Box with Photo Transfer Lid


I know there have been threads on what people to use for presentation but I thought i would share what I have decided to use. I used to use a DVD presentation folder but have now changed to supplying files on a 16Gb wooden USB. I searched and found these nice pine boxes from New Zealand. I transferred a photo from their wedding onto the lid. It's meant to look old and rustic with imperfections, scratches etc. It's very easy to do. I also supply about 30-40 small prints which they are not expecting.
Let me know what you think.

Well thought out and executed.

I am looking forward to how you transferred the image to the wood.

That looks awesome! I've seen a way to transfer photos to wood... Can't remember how but it looks great. Love the box idea

I used "acrylic gel medium"...it's easy to get from art shops. You MUST use a photo printed on a laser printer. I just used the colour photocopier at work. Do not try to use an inkjet or traditional photo print. It's just a matter of applying the gel to the wood and then laying the reversed photo onto it, leave overnight then rub the paper off with water and your fingers! Takes patience. Google photo transfer onto wood.

This is the idea that daughter wants to use. She told me about it a few weeks ago. We are looking for the wooden boxes. I like the idea of including a few snapshots! Thanks for sharing your idea. Since we have gone to flash drive delivery, this idea is great!

I have no affiliation with these people but i got my boxes from the Loveable Photo Packaging Co, new zealand. Had to buy a package of 30 boxes.

Looks nice, although I have to admit the first thing I thought was that I wouldn't want my product to ever be deliberately described as "snapshots"

Yes I did worry about that also. The little pre-printed cards come along with the wooden box.
