It is customary to pack rectangular gifts in wrapping paper. But this method is too common, and therefore not very interesting. To surprise your friends and family, make your own decorations. As a basis, you can take thick plain paper, which you can buy in a stationery store. And make the decor from coloured paper, photographs, ribbons, buttons etc. Even old newspapers or notebook sheets can come in handy, the main thing is to do everything with heart.

Hundreds of bright advertisements attract the consumer's attention every day. You have one or two seconds to attract the attention of the buyer, and during these seconds several brands compete at once.

The work can be done in several ways. It is possible to attract the attention of a potential consumer not only through advertising and discounts, but also through well-thought-out branding, which includes branded product packaging, boxes, product labels and tags.

Basic principles of custom design packaging creation

We all know a simple principle - the product is sold by its packaging. A person must immediately understand what kind of product is in front of him and why it is worth buying; when creating packaging, you need to rely on the real tastes and expectations of potential buyers.

Packaging is an element of brand visualization. Even if you really want to, you should not ignore corporate colors.

Otherwise, it is better to use time-tested successful combinations. You do not need to be a designer, you can just find examples of successful color combinations on the Internet.

The golden rule is no more than five colors (excluding stretch marks) and about seven visual elements (inscriptions or images). The smaller and simpler, the better.
