Changing up your packaging for the season is a great way to refresh your brand, keep customers engaged, and make unboxing a more memorable experience.
But, let's be real: not everyone has the budget (or the need) for fully customized seasonal packaging. The good news is that small, thoughtful changes can make a big difference without costing a fortune.
See how it makes a difference?
Here are the best custom packaging alternatives to give your packaging a fresh springtime feel, plus examples to bring them to life:
1. Use pre-designed packaging
If you’re shipping out products, swap out plain mailers for Impack’s spring-themed flat mailers featuring pastel colors, florals, or nature-inspired designs. If you sell small items, use kraft boxes with a seasonal custom sticker on top to add a subtle touch.
Camelia Bloom Biodegradable Mailers 10" x 13"
Dependable and eco-friendly: Our most popular size, these 10x13 biodegradable mailers combine strength and sustainability, making them perfect for medium-sized shipments.
Versatile packaging solution: Great for clothing items such as t-shirts or artisanal crafts, providing ample protection and a sleek look.
Transit protection: This mailer safeguards your products against the rigors of shipping, with a strong adhesive strip to keep contents secure and protected from moisture and dirt.
Design: With its soft white background and intricate floral illustrations in earthy hues, the Camelia Bloom design offers a graceful and natural charm. The harmonious blend of colors and patterns evokes the peaceful beauty of a blooming garden.
2. Incorporate anything pastel or floral 💐
A small business selling handmade jewelry can swap out its usual logo sticker for a soft floral design or a pastel-colored version. A bakery could seal cookie boxes with a spring-themed “Baked with Love” sticker in a light yellow or mint green.
No need to do a complete redesign of your branding—just add a seasonal touch to your existing stickers.

3. Switch it up to something lighter and brighter
Adding a touch of color can make a huge difference. A skincare brand wrapping its products in white tissue paper can switch to lavender, light pink, or soft yellow tissue to reflect the season. A stationery shop can use floral-patterned tissue inside its packaging to add a little surprise.

4. Tie it together with a ribbon 🎀
A coffee brand shipping out beans can replace standard twine with a soft green or light blue ribbon for a fresh feel. A candle shop can wrap products in tissue and secure them with floral packing tape instead of regular clear tape.
5. Add a seasonal thank you card or a note
A clothing brand can include a small card with a spring-inspired quote like, “Bloom where you are planted.” A soap business could write, “Wishing you a fresh and floral spring season!” on a pastel-colored thank-you note.
7. Include a spring freebie
✅ A stationery shop can add a spring-themed sticker as a small freebie.
✅ A tea brand can include a sample of a floral tea blend.
✅ A candle shop can add a tiny dried flower bundle to each order.
✅ A gift shop can include a small seed packet with a message like “Grow something beautiful this season.”
Small freebies don’t have to be expensive—just thoughtful.
Timeless and switchable packaging for every season
And that's what Imapack is all about. We believe that packaging doesn't have to be complicated or expensive to make a difference—especially for small shops. With small tweaks like pre-designed mailers, floral stickers, pastel tissue, and simple thank-you notes, you can bring a touch of spring to your branding without breaking the bank.
