For me, making the buttons is only half of the battle. Notions has become known for the packaging. And while it's nice to have all my hard work appreciated, it can also be a burden, a sort of keeping up with the Jones's, except in this scenario I am both the 'keeper upper' and the Jones's ( I've often suspected I had a duel personality!). It can be a constant battle trying to come up with a concept that is just as good -if not better- than the last one. Deciding on packaging can sometimes be a painstaking process. I have fabrics that have been sitting for weeks and months waiting for packaging. However, when it came to this fabric I immediately thought three things- vintage, playground and school. For me these three things are summed up in graph paper. With the right font I think this packaging could work really well. The only problem is deciding on which graph pattern I like best. I've narrowed it down to four.
I think this is my favourite...
....but I like the subtlety of this one....
...and the contrast of this one
Any thoughts?

hmmmm I think I like the first one also.
LOVE the buttons. Nice work.

I agree, the first one is the best, defiantly High School memories for me.
I'm liking the second one, your packaging always looks fantastic.
I like the second one too! Love your packaging, it always looks amazing!
Hi Rosie, I like the first one but no matter which one you choose it will still look good. You definitely have a flair with your presentation.
I think the second one is nice, I am a fan of subtlely...LOVE the buttons!
The second one is my favourite as it's nice and simple and subtle at the same time. Any text would stand out really well too. Oh and those buttons are so lovely, I'd buy them no matter which paper you used!
oh these are too cute and you will sell them faster than you can print the graph paper. Hmmmm, loving the second one because the button really stands out here. However the first one looks very 'school-y'. Sorry, not much help really at all.
hi Rosie,
these look awesome!!! For me i like the second one- really makes the button take centre stage. I am sure like everyone else that which ever you choose they will be a hit!!
Although I like the second one the best, I think the first one hits the vintage theme better, The others are very clean and modern.
The first one is the graph paper I remember using at school so #1 for me.I think the third is too dark... definitely out of the first and the second I reckon.
What ever you choose will look awesome I'm sure :)
I like the last one, because it's so bold! :O)
I like the contrast of the last but the first is the traditional graph paper look I remember from school.
I like the second one (and it's more basic - like you'd use in primary school, which is what age these kids seem to be), although the first one looks OK too! Any "Grade One Teacher's Handwriting" font would work for these, especially if you included some grade one report-like comment, like "Rosie is a delight to have in the class!"
