Weekly Wrap #115 : Neon Packaging

Weekly Wrap

Neon Heart Stickers

Fans of neon and fun packaging, you have to check out these packaging goodies from Knot & Bow. My mind is overwhelmed with the gift wrap and packaging possibilities; I’m picturing modern, neon wedding invite envelopes sealed with neon pink hearts, an assortment of neon gift tags stamped in white, homemade patterned gift wrap created using neon hearts … I think that you’re starting to get the picture.

Head on over to Knot & Bow to pick up some of these neon goodies, and be sure to check out their awesome metallic twine while you’re there. Love that stuff!

Fortyfive Design

Fortyfive Design

I am completely digging the vibrant, modern paper goodies from New Zealand’s Fortyfive Design. This fabulous female design trio get their creativity on in a studio that overlooks the beautiful Wellington Harbour and, while the work that they do is mostly commercial, their first love is self-directed greeting card and art print projects, which allow them to follow their fancies and experiment with aesthetic and print possibilities. Fortyfive’s paper goods collection has grown to over 20 greeting cards and 10 art prints that can be found in shops across New Zealand or in their online shop (they ship internationally, too!).

Each member of the Fortyfive trio brings her own flavor to the mix, making the collection diverse and playful, with screen printed and digital printed designs that showcase great typography, hand-lettering, and eye-catching illustration. Here’s a peek at what you’ll find in the Fortyfive shop:
