Here's the beast of a tutorial. Simple? MY BUM!



I also attempted making a bird.

Again, I failed. Miserably. :(

Origami much?


Since I've been looking at shapes of tea bags, it gave me the idea of creating my own shapes to do with various things, whether be animals or just things.
In the crit it was suggested that I keep going with this idea and explore it further.
I was given a website; www.lovelypackage.com, and told to look under 'beverages'. Below is the image in this category. A perfect example of the kind of thing I was going for. It's soooooooo simple, and looks so nice! The packaging is pretty nice too. Simplistic and just well put together. I really don't wanna make this too complicated. My work ALWAYS turns out to be complicated, completely unintentionally! Frustrating much!



Imagine having a pretty pink flower opening up in your cup of tea! :')


Ok, I HAD to include this! Haha!! It just reminds me of... me actually! Folding money to make shapes with the queens head! Usually it's using half her face with the guy on the back, whatever his name is! I guess most people have done it actually. But yeah. Thought it was something amusing to look at. :)

WATCH IT! IT'S BRILLIANT!

Apple packaging ♥


I absolutely love apple's packaging, although I wouldn't say they use it lightly! That's the whole fun of it though. Buying something you're excited about getting home to play with it. First of all, you've got to find it!
Apple usually have really cool pully-outy bits, slidey bits, and flaps to fold, which makes you feel as though you've got your moneys worth. It's almost as though you've literally just paid for a load of packaging! Haha!! Ah well, it's all good fun and games. :)



'Moodstream'


Here's some more packaging from http://www.wearebuild.com...

I'm really liking the logo below for this piece of work! Visually, it's very contemporary and precise, which is how I like to work when creating a logo.

This appeals to me because of it's clean finish. I'm interested in how the product inside the packaging is layered and well kept.
