Week 31 :: Packaging Wraps Tutorial

por | | 0 comments
As promised, here's how to make your own packaging wraps! It works best on smaller boxes, and doesn't need a whole lot of time or supplies.



What you need:

1. A jewelry box or smaller gift box. You can find these at your local craft store in a variety of sizes, but these instructions work best with a box whose height and width multiplied by 2 add up to less than 12 inches. For example, the box I used is 3.5 inches wide and 1 inch in height, or 9 inches around.

2. 12x12 inch scrapbooking paper.

3. Adhesive squares, double-sided tape, or a glue-stick. Glue sticks work better than craft glue because the paper doesn't warp.

4. Scissors, a paper cutter, or an Xacto knife.

5. A ruler.



Step 1: Measure and cut your scrapbooking paper into 1.5 inch wide by 12 inch long strips. Then fold about an inch of one end over. Don't worry about exact measurements - it really doesn't matter, so long as you have enough paper to wrap around the box with some overlap.



Step 2: Wrap the paper strip around the box, pressing down and folding it around the edges to give you the basic shape of the box.



Step 3: Use your glue stick and glue down the flap you folded (#1). Then put glue on top of the other end (#2) and stick them together. If you're worried about fit, slide the strip back over the box and then glue the ends down.




Step 4: Slide your new wrap on the box, add a decorative sticker or label, and you're good to go! This is a really basic wrap, with lots of places for personalization. You can eyelets, buttons, grommets, ribbons, whatever you can think of. You can also cut the paper with fancy scissors for scalloped edges, or move the flap to the center or back - it's really up to you.


Hope you enjoy!

Fall 2010. PART XVI.

por | | 0 comments
I can't believe this is my 16th blog entry on the Fall 2010 shows! I had to kick it off with John Galliano as it has to be one of the most beautiful collections, from head to toe. It was pure eye candy and I adored the nomadic, gypsy-esque princess theme...but I'm certain there were several other mini themes slithering its way through the whole collection anyway!

PART XVI.There was a similar 'global'' concept within Jean Paul Gaultier's collection, but because of his quirky interpretation of ideas, I think I preferred his collection the most. There were sporty elements that looked very new and I was delighted to see his iconic cone bra incorporated into a chinoiserie dress! Fall 2010. PART XVI.Fall 2010. PART XVI.Fall 2010.
