Common Questions
Q: What size gift basket fits in an 18x24 shrink bag?
A: This size comfortably fits large gift baskets up to about 16" wide and 20" tall, including most hampers, wine gift sets with accessories, and tower-style gift arrangements. Allow a few inches of overlap for a clean seal at the bottom.
Q: Can I use a hair dryer or do I need a heat gun?
A: While PVC shrinks at relatively low temperatures, a heat gun works best for even, professional results. Hair dryers typically don't get hot enough and may leave wrinkles. A basic heat gun from any hardware store works perfectly.
Q: How do I get a professional-looking finish?
A: Start from the bottom and work up in circular motions, keeping the heat gun 6-8 inches away. Heat evenly to avoid bubbles or uneven shrinking. Many sellers add a ribbon or bow after shrinking for that finishing touch.
