Shipping Bag
€1.50
It is one of my missions to keep packaging and waste to a minimum, and be as environmentally friendly as possible, and so the branded Mama Moments boxes are in fact postal boxes meaning they can be shipped as is, without the need for additional wasteful packaging.
But sometimes you are ordering a gift that you want to hand over in person and would prefer the postal label not be affixed directly to the Mama Moments box ... and sometimes you want to hide the Mama Moments box from the person you live with to surprise them!
In these cases you can request that your Mama Moments box be shipped inside a shipping bag.
