1. Colorful Paper Boxes:
When we say ‘colorful boxes’ we don’t just mean a lick of paint. We mean vibrant and in-your-face colors that people won’t be able to resist picking up off the shelf. If you want to give your box packaging some real pizzazz, then this is the option for you. Because of the clear plastic window, these boxes are ideal for gift bags or wedding favors. And if you use gold or silver glimmer paper, then these boxes can double up as a stunning party invitation card holder or an event place card box.
2. Sturdy Square Boxes with a Printing Edge (Camo Edge):
If you want your cardboard box to be extra sturdy and have a more military feel, then these are the boxes for you. With a printing edge and double-fold bottom, it’s more than just a box – it’s a mobile of sorts!
3. Minimalistic Boxes with Decorative Corners:
As the name suggests, this is packaging done in minimalism. A giant square of cardboard with no design on it at all, this is perhaps the most basic design we’ve yet considered. However, it does set out to achieve one key objective: to look like an ideal utilitarian box.
4. Boxes with Multiple Sides:
Dealing with more than just one side of a card, this box has two opposing sides that suggest what it’s used for. However, because of the transparent window on the front and the long paper flap, it’s not just useful as a box but as an object of beauty too.
5. Yellow Boxes with Cutouts:
When you want to achieve an army-themed look for your design your own cardboard boxes, then this is the design for you. The cutout across its center allows light to shine through. So that you can see the product inside and give it some personality at the same time.
6. Transparent Cardboard Boxes:
Having a clear window, these cardboard boxes will let customers know exactly what’s inside. It’s practical and looks great, but it also has another function: showing off your products to the world.
7. Decorative Boxes with Images:
Taking its inspiration from China, these boxes have a nice layered effect to them – something which you don’t often see on cardboard boxes in the West. The images are decorated with fine gold details that pop out at you and make even plain cardboard look more appealing than ever before!
8. Red & White Boxes with Coin-Shaped Cutouts:
Who doesn’t like coins? Well, if they’re made up of transparent and translucent materials, then these are the kind of boxes to choose from. They’ve even got a hint of a military theme to them and have also got a little gold leaf design on them.
9. Boxes with Lined Pages:
Need to print on both sides of your cardboard box? Then this is the design for you! The inner pages are cut so that there are two sides to the deckle-edge paper and the outside pages – there’s no hole in the middle at all! And when folded over into thirds, you get a really handy writing pad or diary.
10. Customized Cardboard Boxes with a Window:
A smaller and more compact version of #5, these boxes are ideal for health products. The window allows you to see the product inside and can also be used to write a slogan or a message on the outside (depending on your needs).
11. Lined White Paper Boxes with Handle:
Finally, these boxes are lined with white paper on all sides so that they don’t look so bare. Because of the handle, they’re also an ideal choice for carrying food items like takeaway meals back home or snacks to work in your lunch bag.
