Cookie Tins

The goal was to take an existing, unbranded vessel of some kind — like a bottle, can or tin — then prepare a branded series of three different flavors or varieties. The challenge here was to make each package have enough variety to seem like a different ‘flavor’ while still being the same product.
The vessel I chose for my project was silver candle tins, but I was planning on repurposing them to hold homemade thin cookies in an attractive yet durable package. I wanted to aim for that ‘homemade’ aesthetic, evoking the feeling of a grandmother’s kitchen.
To achieve the feeling I wanted for this project, I settled on a cozy christmas-like palette on the tins and a pattern for each - tan with brown gingerbread men for ‘Grandma’s Gingerbread’, Green with white spheres for Peppermint Snowballs, and white with blue snowflakes for ‘Snowfall Shortbread’.

Wrapping around the can is a red label that forms a ‘ribbon’ around the tin, then goes up the top to keep the cookies fresh and prevent any tampering.
