"I am looking forward to trying this shredded wood for baskets and gift bags, but I am wondering about some filler I purchased from WSS a few years back. It is like crinkle paper but thinner & not as crinkly, I think it was referred to as "similar to birds nests"...it's kraft brown paper, looks similar to this shredded wood...did you discontinue it?"

	"Authentic looking for Farmer's Market booth"
COMMENTS: I purchased this product to use as a display filler for my market booth. I use a variety of boxes and containers within my display and I was looking for some uniformity. This not only offers a rustic look, it is also a great insulator for my products. I worried about the products breaking, but this provides a much better cushion than the fabric that I was using. It also works as a great filler without adding weight. Rather than filling the boxes to the brim to fill space, I was able to back fill and remove the clutter from my display. Because it is shredded wood, it doesn't take much. I would also recommend using gloves to separate into the desired amount. I didn't have a problem with splinters, I just found it much easier to handle when I used a pair of leather working gloves. I ordered far more than what I needed, so start small. You can always re-order.

"great"

COMMENTS: This is great quality, beautiful natural look, I think unfortunately I am allergic to it as I was not able to tolerate it when I opened the bag :( That was frustrating because i REALLY want to use it for my baskets and displays, gorgeous, did not occur to me about possible wood or tree allergy? I ordered the regular paper shred thankfully as well in ivory which I was able to use with no issue.

	"Natural packaging "
COMMENTS: Bought a pound and was pleasantly surprised at how large the bag was! It only takes a tiny bit compared to shredded paper to use as a packaging material. Love how it looks in the bottom of a mason jar with sample size soaps on top. Also like that it doesn't compress like other materials.
