Monday Inspiration: Product Packaging Part 1

January 25, 2010

Since I started my etsy shop in September, I have been tweaking my product packaging as I go along. I pretty much have it where I want it to be…just working on labels. Along the way I have found some packaging examples that are inspiring to me for their originality, professionalism, and consistency with their shop design. Have a look! Which do you like best? Don’t these want to make you order something from them? 😀
