How many times have you walked down the cigarette aisle at the store and wondered just how your favorite cigarette company packages its products? They’re all practically the same shape, with the same labeling and design styles, and so on. Wouldn’t it be nice to have your own, unique cigarette boxes that set you apart from everyone else in the market? Here’s how to create blank cigarette boxes, so you can package your cigarettes just like you want them!
Decide on the size of your Box
Buying blank cigarette packs can be expensive, and designing your own box is a way to save money and have some creative freedom. The first thing you'll need to do is decide on the size of your box. There are a few factors to consider when selecting the size.
- Will you be putting more than one pack in the box?
- Do you want it to fit nicely on a shelf or countertop?
- What's the theme of your design going to be?
Once you've decided on the size, use paper as a template for cutting out and decorating your blank cardboard cigarette boxes.
Choose your Material
Smoking, or at least the tradition of it, is a dying art in many places. This is due to the fact that it has become more and more difficult for smokers to find blank cigarette packs. For those who want to make their own cigarette boxes from scratch, there are some options available that will allow you to create blank packs with ease.
Design your Box
If you're looking to start your own line of cigarettes, it's important to decide on a package design. While there are many different styles and sizes of blank cigarette boxes, the most common size is roughly equivalent to a 12-pack. Blank cardboard cigarette boxes are also available in this size, but they have a slightly different shape than paper packs. It is possible to find blank cigarette packs in a variety of shapes and sizes, so if you're unsure which one would be best for your brand we recommend looking through some pictures online or visiting a tobacco store in person.
Assemble your Box
If you are not in the habit of smoking cigarettes, this might sound like a strange project. However, if you do smoke and have been thinking about quitting, then this is for you. The blank cigarette packs allow smokers to design their own cigarettes by adding their own artwork or message to the box in order to create something unique. Here's how to make your own blank cigarette boxes. First, measure out your box on a piece of paper and cut it out. You will need two pieces (top and bottom) that are exactly the same size when they are done so be sure to take care with measurements.
Fill your Box with Cigarettes
Boxes are an integral part of marketing a new brand, and they should reflect the style and personality of your company. They should also be carefully designed to make it difficult for counterfeiters to duplicate your designs. Blank cigarette packs are available at many shipping stores, but blank cardboard cigarette boxes can be found at a more affordable price. Making your own design is much easier than you might think, and can even be done with just a few markers or paint pens. For those who want professional quality without hiring expensive designers, there is software that will allow you to create your own custom design without any artistic skill needed!
Seal your Box
The easiest way to seal the box is to use a hot glue gun. This will not only help you keep your cigarette box from coming open, but it will also make the entire package easier to close and seal. Take your blank cardboard cigarette boxes and lay them flat on the table. Make sure they are as close together as possible without overlapping. Turn on your hot glue gun and put a small bead of glue along one side of the box. As you move up the side, make sure that each bead of glue overlaps the previous one by about half an inch or so. Do this all the way up until you reach the top of the box, then go back down in order to cover any gaps in your first line of sealant with another layer.
Conclusion
There are a lot of things to consider when designing your own cigarette box, but with a little preparation and patience, you can create an amazing product. Start by creating blank cigarette packs and cardboard cigarette boxes. Gather ideas for designs that are original and unique to you. Before beginning the design process, look at other brands' packaging to get inspiration. Draw sketches until you find the perfect design, then print it out onto paper and cut out any excess pieces. Once you have all of your design cutouts, adhere them to your blank cigarette packs or cardboard cigarette boxes using double-sided tape or glue sticks. Afterward, all that's left is to fill up the cartons with cigarettes!
