I'm selling my repainted Ghoulia and I wanted to ship her off back in her old box. I'm curious on how I can anchor her back inside it?

Depending on how you got her out the first time you could probably use twist ties to attach her to the background again. Or if you really wanted to strap her down you could zip-tie the torso and twist tie the arms, maybe?

Okay, twist ties sound good. For some reason I was thinking I need tape and elastic bands. lol I do have zip ties I can probably use for this. Thanks!

if you want to, you can tape the twist-ties flat against the backing, to make sure they don't wiggle around too much.
