ABOUT THE PUBLICATION
Ideas worth putting on a shelf.
What should it feel like? What should it say? And will it still work when it folds? A journal about turning packaging ideas into something you can actually make.
Useful work, clearly explained.
The Packaging Edit publishes practical guides to packaging design: choosing formats, working with dielines, reviewing artwork and preparing a clearer handoff. Each guide is written around a decision you can use on a real project.
Why CraftyWand appears here
CraftyWand is the free packaging tool featured throughout these guides. Its browser-based workflow combines dielines, artwork, 3D previews, project saving and exports. The articles show where those tools fit into the work.
How to use these guides
Try the advice on your actual structure and artwork. Confirm material, print and construction requirements with your supplier. Concept imagery illustrates a visual direction; it is not a claim that a pictured product has been manufactured or sold.
