I love packaging. When I give a gift no matter how small I want the packaging to almost as much fun as getting the gift. So this year when I made a few candy corn soaps for friends, I really wanted to dress them up a bit and make them look a bit fall festive! So I used a few simple paper techniques to add some punch to my packaging. First you’ll need to know how to make a paper rosette. If you haven’t made one before try this instructional video. Rosettes are great for decorating all types of packaging. Please feel free to download our holiday papers and use them as much as you want…we just ask you use them for personal use only.
To make your Candy Corn Rosette you will need:
1. Candy Corn Stripped Paper (DOWNLOAD BELOW)
2. Candy Corn Label (DOWNLOAD BELOW)
3. Plain black or patterned black paper.
4. Paper Punch (we used EK Success Real Estate Punch) or you can use any 2 inch or larger punch.
5. Scissors or Paper Cutter
6. Optional, a few glue backed crystal embellishments or embellishments of your choice
7. Glue or strip adhesive
9. Scoreboard
Directions
1. First use your Candy Corn Stripped Paper to make your rosettes following instructions on the video. Be sure to cut your paper lengthwise.
2. Cut out your Candy Corn Label using a paper punch that is at least 2 inches. Attache your crystals and attach label to rosette with Pop Dot or glue.
Attache Candy Corn label to rosette
3. Using your black dot paper or black paper cut a 2″ x 8″ strip
Start to wrap soap
Be sure to make some crisp edges
4. Wrap your strip around your soap making creases around any edges.
5. Glue the back of your paper.
6. Glue the dot on the back or your rosette.
Attach your Pop Dot on the back
7. Attach to your Rosette to the front of your soap(on the paper wrap)
8. WOW…what a pretty soap!
