Abstract
This invention is a design for packaging (boxes or paper bags). The packaging is decorated with a bouquet of miniature mulberry paper flowers on the cover or side of the packaging. The miniature mulberry paper flowers can be roses, calla-lilies, daisies, rosebuds, lotuses, dahlia, poinsettias, gypsos, leaves, sunflowers, chrysanthemums, flat flowers, star flowers, tulips and decorating flowers. These flowers can be of different sizes or colors. The arrangement of the flowers' wires along the main stem's wire of the focal flower chosen allows for a 3-D arrangement. The flowers are arranged in the format of a fresh bouquet of flowers done by a western floral designer. This bouquet of flowers is glued onto the packaging box from the underside of the bouquet. There is the possibility of uncountable permutations of miniature bouquets of flowers. The flowers are bought ready-made from the internet.
Description
- This invention is a new idea that changes the format of present day packaging to packaging being decorated with a bouquet of mulberry paper flowers, leaves and other embellishments: such as ribbons and feathers and perhaps charms This bouquet format allows for a 3-D arrangement along the main stem (the wire of the flower chosen to be the focal one), and the rest of the other flowers being wrapped around the main stem, as a spray of flowers. It is very similar in representation to a normal bouquet of flowers, except that every flower and leaves is arranged along the focal flower's stem. This allows for the layering of each flower into a 3-D arrangement.
- At present the packaging industry has made use of different types of shapes, packaging material, lithographic techniques, different prints or ribbons on the packaging for items in the perfume industry, personal body care items or the chocolate industry.
- My invention of a spray of flowers on the packaging box or paper bag, may eliminate the need to think and design graphics for the packaging of the current method. There may be the elimination of organizing the design to be printed onto the cardboard or material for the packaging. This may result in a decrease in the number of developmental stages of the design of current and prior art.
- My idea has many, perhaps uncountable permutations of bouquets of flowers, and thus would result in a decrease in time to develop an aesthetic appearance for packaging that has been used for current and prior art.
- Current and prior art utilizes a variety of shapes, sizes and designs with or without graphic impact—bold graphics, metallic and fluorescent inks, holograms, foil stamping, poly-coatings or laminations on the packaging
- Current art is presently done for wedding favor boxes. Mine is different—wedding favor boxes have currently on the internet—three roses arranged flatly on the cover of the box. My box has flowers and leaves wrapped around a main stem producing a 3-D effect. The flat single arrangement of current art of favor boxes, has permutations but far less, it is limited to the surface area, by the number of positions the flowers can occupy on the surface area of the box. My design is 3-D, the flowers are arranged around a main stem.
- The flowers can be arranged with any number and kind of flowers and the variations of the bouquets are not constrained to the surface of the box, the variations are in fact uncountable.
- The flowers and leaves are arranged in various layers with each flowers' wire arranged from the back of the previous flowers onto the focal flower's wire at the back. Sometimes, the flowers are not in layers but are arranged in layer format, but appearing as in one layer, The flowers are arranged next to each other, and each flower's wire is placed at the back of each flower, entwined around the focal flower's wire (the main wire).
- The miniature mulberry paper flowers are extremely light in weight. The flowers are bought ready-made, the invention is to place these flowers as a bouquet and to use the idea for packaging. The cost of these flowers is low.
- The newness of the idea is stunning and attractive, it could also increase the sale of whichever product that this idea is used for packaging. It would also increase visibility of the product. Ladies love flowers, so why not place these miniature spray of flowers on boxes that are for perfume, personal body care products or chocolate industries, to name but a few of the industries that the invention could be used in.
- The boxes can also be used to store goods, after the initial product is taken out and used.
- The packaging market is huge and it is a ready market.
- Boxes or paper bags (packaging) can be decorated with a spray of miniature mulberry paper flowers in a 3-D arrangement. This 3-D arrangement allows for perhaps uncountable permutations, which results in a change in which packaging is to be presented in the future. The 3-D bouquet can also be arranged with other embellishments using current and prior techniques for designing packaging.
- The current designs which are different shapes of boxes, different prints on the paper of the boxes, embossing, foil stamping, different media used in making the boxes can also be used to make the future boxes with this invention—such as solid bleached sulfate, coated unbleached kraft, clay coated news, folding boxboard, and uncoated recycled box board.
- Since the number of permutations is enormous, I will only describe the making of one design of a 3-D bouquet of flowers to be glued onto packaging (box/paper bag). I have included an extra two set of bouquets to represent the many bouquets that can be designed for the packaging in mind. The following is a development of one bouquet of flowers that I have chosen as an example.
-
FIG. 1 (front) - The frontal view of
FIG. 1 is two roses, one rose is facing on the left hand side at a different angle to the right sided rose. The left rose faces towards the left, the wire attached to the left rose is wound around the wire attached to the right rose. The right rose is the focal rose. -
FIG. 2 (front) - This is a build on of
FIG. 1 . Three rosebuds are arranged to the right of the right rose. The three rosebuds are arranged in a row vertically next to the focal rose. In order to do this the wires of each of the rosebuds are wrapped at the back of the frontal view around the focal rose's wire. -
FIG. 3 (front) - This is a build up of
FIG. 2 . Two daisies are placed in between the two roses on the top of the roses. This is in the second layer to the back of the two roses. The one daisy is on the left facing at 90 degrees to the roses and the other daisy is facing 90 degrees to the other daisy. The wires of the two daisies are wrapped around the wire of the focal rose from the back of the frontal view of the two roses. -
FIG. 3 (back) - This shows the architecture of the winding of the wires around the focal flower's wire (the main stem)
-
FIG. 4 (front) - This is a build on of
FIG. 3 . Two rosebuds larger than those on the right of the focal rose are placed, the one larger rosebud is placed behind the left large rose in the gap between the roses. The second rosebud is placed behind the focal rose and daisies as a third layer from a frontal view of the bouquet. These two rosebuds are separated from each other by the second layer (of daisies)—these rosebuds are placed above the large roses. The rosebuds' wires are wrapped from the back along the focal rose's wire. -
FIG. 5 (front) - This is a build up of
FIG. 4 . Another two rosebuds are placed above the third layer made up of the roses placed inFIG. 4 , but these roses are in the fourth layer behind the rosebuds in the third layer. The two rosebuds in this fourth layer are separated by the daisies and there is a gap between these two rosebuds. They are not exactly next to each other. The wires of these two rosebuds are wired from the back of the bouquet along the focal rose. -
FIG. 5 (back) - This shows the architecture of the winding of the wires around the focal flower's wire (the main stem)
-
FIG. 6 (front) - This is a build up of
FIG. 5 . Two more rosebuds are placed. One rosebud is placed as in the second layer at 45 degrees from the wire of the focal rose's wire. This rosebud is above the left rose. The second rosebud is placed in between the rosebuds placed inFIG. 5 . It is in the fifth layer. The wires of these two rosebuds are wrapped from the back of the bouquet to the focal rose's wire. -
FIG. 7 (front) - The only change from
FIG. 6 is the placing of a leaf at 45 degrees in between the roses with the wire of the leaf wrapped from the back of the bouquet around the focal rose's wire. -
FIG. 7 (back) - This shows the architecture of the winding of the wires around the focal flower's wire (the main stem)
- On page 11/38, this is the representation on a photograph of the real bouquet that has been developed in the
FIGS. 1-7 above, this is figure A1. - On page 12/38 is a representation on a photograph of an example of another bouquet of flowers that can be developed this is figure B1
- On page 13/38 is a representation on a photograph of an example of another bouquet of flowers that can be developed, this is figure C1
- There is one set of drawings namely: The build up of the miniature mulberry paper flowers into a 3-D bouquet of flowers.
- The flowers in the drawings for the
FIGS. 1 to 7 described in detail as to the build up of a 3-D bouquet, comprises chiefly of roses, rosebuds, daisies and a leaf. The flowers are in 3-D, meaning that each flower is arranged in layers. Each flower or leaf is arranged coming from behind the previous flower that has been wrapped around the focal flower. - The newest flower or leaf then has its wire wrapped from the back around the wire of the focal flower. The bouquet of flowers is then glued from its back view onto the cover or side of the packaging The bouquet so arranged appears as in a bouquet of fresh flowers in floral designing.
- There are figures too that show the back views of the bouquet of flowers described above.
- There are four sets of photographs:
- The first set: A photograph of the built-up (complete) bouquet on a box as discussed in the drawings section on page 11/38 this is figure A1
- The second set: A photograph of another different bouquet on a box on page 12/38., this is figure B1.
- The third set: Another photograph of another possible permutation of 3-D bouquet of flowers that is presented with a box as packaging on page 13/38, this is figure C1
- The fourth set: These are individual photographs of the miniature mulberry paper flowers/leaves that can be used to develop one's 3-D bouquet of flowers for decorating packaging. They are figures A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, RS, T, U, V, W, X, Y. on pages (14-38)/38
- The 3-D arrangement of flowers into a bouquet of flowers similar to a bouquet of fresh flowers arranged by a floral designer, can be used in packaging for especially ladies' with regard to personal body care products, perfumes, chocolates and so forth.
