Making your packaging grab peoples’ attention in terms of design, so that it is attractive and nice for others to look at, isn’t as difficult as it may seem. You don’t need to spend a fortune on a box with pictures and letters printed onto it. You don’t need to do anything like that. The key to the perfect packaging is to put all your efforts into achieving the details that fit perfectly with your box. To do so, there is nothing better than to use your creativity to think about designs that will fit perfectly with our box, whilst being original and striking at the same time.
To start, you need to think about the type of gift that you have, or what the product is. Once you know this, you need to choose a cheap box which fits well. At SelfPackaging we have loads of cheap boxes in great shapes and sizes. Of course, the design is very important, but you also need to think about what you will use it for. It’s not the same giving it in person as shipping it. Don’t stop looking until you’ve got the perfect cheap box. In this way, you will work better with it and you will ensure that there is no damage made to the inside, so you won’t have to worry about somebody complaining that the contents have been damaged. Of course, the box is really important because it’s the first thing that they see, but what is inside is the most important thing.
When you have the box, and its colour scheme, you need to think: Do I want it to be a flat design or something with stamping? These types of things, like printed pictures, will have a huge artistic impact. On the whole, a box without any design will be cheaper, but the end result will also be more stiking and special if you can get a pre-set design or one that you have done yourself. If you choose to edit the boxes with your own designs, at SelfPackaging you have the printing configurator which will make everything easier, and you will be able to see the result live.
The little details are the most important element when ensuring that the packaging grabs peoples’ attention. Besides with the stamping and thanks to your creativity, here is where you will bring your packaging to life. We always recommend that you don’t go overboard because in this way the box design looks much cleaner. Some labels and ribbon are always a good option for your cheap box and they are so cheap themselves. Even so, there are so many types of labels available, as well as other accessories such as stickers, washi tapes, felts, etc. It’s not putting it all together that is difficult but choosing all the accessories that will give it its personality!
As you can see, getting the perfect packaging isn’t so difficult or expensive. The only thing that you need to achieve it is the enthusiasm to create something amazing and to have fun in the process!
