Kawakawa Balm Packaging

Last week we finally managed to finish our kawakawa balm packaging and we are pretty proud of the results! I am even very impressed with the creative way that the kids took photos of their finished product.
We made nets using Google drawings, and learnt how to make the shapes even sized using format options. We added pictures, natural colours and information to the boxes as you would expect to see when you buy a product.
When they were printed out, we glued them onto card, cut them out, folded along the lines, and put the box together. We learnt that it is not easy to fold card and we should have used cereal boxes which is a bit thinner. We also learnt the importance of cutting and folding tidily and ensuring our net was fully glued on. When we did this they boxes came out tidier.
We also made a label to go on the balm container. These had to be tiny, so we had to adjust the Google drawing size and view it at 100% to allow us to get the right size. We then increased the view to 200% to allow us to work on it. These were printed onto labels and stuck on.
