i’m psyched about: oval kleenex boxes
It’s a sad fact of my life that I sneeze quite often. Therefore, I try not to ever be too far away from a box of tissues. I thought I had found the coolest boxes at Target, but then I stumbled across the new oval boxes from Kleenex and found décor bliss. Who could ever imagined that Kleenex would make a box that was mod enough to be proudly displayed in the living room? Behold! They come in a bunch of patterns but I immediately went for this mid-century, Adler-esque pattern. Check out more of the designs by clicking here. — Angela M.

i almost posted about these too!
i have oval boxes with groovy prints mod flowers + wavey stripes.
but, i saw online a box that said, “kleerkut” on a kleenex box + it said it takes something like a whole tree to make 1 box of kleenex + manufacturing it is really bad for the environment.

I love these! I just bought one myself. I love the idea of buying super cute design for only $2.19!

These sure beat crochet tissue box covers in baby blue!
I like the one you’ve chosen Angela, and geek that I am, I actually watched the entire clip that you’ve linked to in this post. I think my favorite is the goldish one with the Tord Bootje-esque floral pattern on it.
Nice post. I saw these over the summer in my local Target, but then they disappeared. Glad to see them back!

I love it! Must get a whole case! And I was just having fun with Puffs boxes which have the cool designs on the box …

They’re not *that* new.
I think they’ve been around for at least a year or two, but it’s been a while since I bought one, so I can’t remember exactly when they came out.
At Xmas they often have garishly glittery ones. Magpie-like, I am attracted to the shininess.

[...] blue square piece of cloth to…uh, hmmm… dab the corner of thy mouth when eating shortbread during afternoon tea (no? wanna start a group??) I under-appreciate (or really, let’s be honest, in this day and age of tissues in an OVAL box – check this out!) handkerchiefs – the work, craftsmanship, style…uniqueness. I started comparing. [...]

I would like to order a large supply of oval kleenex in several designs, to be delivered to my home. How do I do this?
