Soap-On-A-Rope

Ok, this one is a little goofy... it was a gag gift for a friend, but I wanted to toss it up here anyway because it was a good attempt at package design. Because of the size of the paper I was working with, I had to divide the intended-box into two sections... the front/left/top panels and their tabs, and the right/back/bottom panels and their tabs. The light blue shape overlapping the left/front/right panels of the package was removed, and I pasted a piece of acetate in its place to serve as a "window" to view the enclosed soap-on-a-rope. I actually molded the soap, printed the packaging, and constructed the entire thing by hand, and it all functions very smoothly!
