But the real treat was the artwork on the outside of the box.

Kudos to the resident artist that works at Ton Bihn our Tootsie thanks you also.
I think we should have a collection Tom Bihn art display someday. (:
Love the artwork, and box contents, too!
Which one of the Bihn staff artists drew that one??? That's superlative!!!
I'm the one responsible for the drawing of Tootsie. I'm glad you all (Tootsie included) like it-- it was fun to do! Thanks for the kind words, too!
I have a collection of awesome TB bags and accessories, but so far no artwork....hint, hint, hint...:-)
Beau, I hope that you & the other Bihn-artists realize how much we all enjoy seeing your artwork! (And my dog Maddie approves, too.)Quote:

I'm with you here, Grandcache. After a while I started feeling guilty for asking so much, so I stopped. I'll have to live vicariously through the others' boxes!Quote:

I asked very early on in my TB ordering infancy.. twice for me and once for my mom's birthday Cardinal LS order. After reading more in the forums, it was pointed out that there was just one person boxing, and that they were REALLY busy (which is a good thing), so I left it at that. I am OK with it... it makes it easier to re-use the boxes. I kept them all for a while until it became a fire hazard! I am so blessed by all of you in so many other ways..... box art, while wonderful, is such a small portion of all the amazing things you all create that I get to enjoy, so I hope my reply to Grandcache will be taken as a sympathetic response, NOT in any way a complaint! :)Quote:

My boxes have not gone to waste either...this year they were my "go to" shipping box for mailed holiday gifts. The responses were interesting...some recipients inquired about "Tom Bihn" and others expressed disappointment that the label on the outside did not match the gift on the inside. Lesson learned...next year shop Tom Bihn for holiday gifts... :-)
LOL. Love the artwork on the box, thats great. I go by KDOG08 over at EDCF and you ever want to put some fancy original artwork on the box of any of my orders, go RIGHT ahead - I'll frame it!
DEFINITELY worth posting to the Tom Bihn gallery on Flickr!!Quote:

I LOVE the boxes TB uses. If you ever buy one of the bigger travel bags, covet the big boxes and save them. They are bigger than any of the free Priority Mail boxes you can get at the post office, and make GREAT boxes if you ever need to ship a laptop (lots of room for packing material).Quote:

We just received another Tom Bihn box artwork with the order of our medium cafe bag.
I love the Farman F.121 Jabiru airplane Tom uses as the symbol for the company
so I requested a picture of it on the box. Below is the great artwork again but if you
look closely at the one window on the plane you will see a mini surprise. That is our Kiya
flying first class ha ha. Another one to add to our collection.
