Kitchen China, Glassware, Crystal, Etc.

Put packing material (bubble wrap or Styrofoam) in the bottom of the box. Wrap each piece individually in tissue paper. Pack all of these items in such a way so that they won't bang against each other. Place plenty of loose Styrofoam or crunched up newspaper in the voids and cavities in the box as you pack. Put packing material (bubble wrap or Styrofoam) in the bottom of the box and seal it with tape. Mark the boxes "fragile" and identify which room they go into. Make sure not to place heavy boxes on these items to avoid crushing.

Other Glass and Fragile Items (mirrors, windows, paintings, glass framed pictures)
These items should be packed in the same way as described in packing the kitchen stuff.For more safety moving the mirrors might be pack in the special plastic paper like this:

Here is a special tip for moving your favourite  paintings or glass framed pictures:

1.      If your painting is framed with glass put masking tape across the front of the painting like an X to keep the pieces in place in case the glass cracks or breaks.

2.      Cover the framed painting or canvas with bubble wrap and tape it closed.

3.      If you are packing a painting with glass then put the painting in a picture, mirror box and if it fit loosely in the box, fill in the spaces with lightly wadded newsprint paper. If two boxes are needed for the painting then put the second box on top of the other by telescoping them together and fill spaces with lightly wadded newsprint paper.

4.      If you are packing a canvas painting (no frame, no glass), wrap the box in bubble wrap again, tape it, then build a second box for the first box. Your chances of sharp objects puncturing the box and canvas during the move to slim.

5.      Tape the box or boxes shut and mark it “Fragile- Art”.
