Peachy Packaging

Inspired by Pantone's 2012 color of the year, Tangerine Tango, I started to collect ruffles/streamers/ribbon/sequins in various shades of orange. The lights and bold oranges mixed with all of the texture allows for a seamless fit to my current style and aesthetic. I think the colors will freshen up the look of my table design and bring the extra pop that I like. And an update in table colors brings an update in packaging!


With the use of good old Japanese washi tape and some glitter hearts comes some peachy boxes for 2012!!


I like how the coral pink and peach tape coordinates with the purple of the boxes.




Yay!

Do you have a favorite color for 2012? Will you be adding some tangerine tango to your look?
