Today I started working on my packaging design. I've been sketching and experimenting with different materials (pictures to come!) but I hadn't done anything on the computer yet.
I've decided to go with a jar made out of paperclay (biodegradable + lightweight!) and wrap it with a basket handwoven out of raffia. The idea is that this product is not only good for the environment but also helps communities in South America become sustainable, economically that is. Peruvian, Argentinian and Bolivian artisans would make the packages and, respecting the standards of Fair Trade, would be remunerated accordingly.
The top picture would be the "cover" for a little booklet-tag which, inside, would have all the information about the specific herb and instructions for proper steeping. The bottom picture would be a seal for the lid.
