    Packaging Design

    Beyond your logos and brand visuals, packaging is an irreplaceable brand asset for product-led brands. It’s what drives us to grab a product off the shelf or click “buy now” or excites your senses as you unbox it. As a product-led brand, packaging means everything.

    Packaging serves as the staircase from a potential interest to a completed sale. It helps your community visually understand the big picture vision you have for your brand. Do your people share your packaging on their socials? Can they not help but grab it off the shelves to check it out? Whether you have an established brand identity (or want to hire us for that too), we believe a packaging experience that truly speaks to your people is a crucial investment in supporting a long-term, transformational brand experience.

    Packaging options:
    • Primary Packaging
    • Shipping Box Design
    • Custom Mailers
    • Hang Tags
    • Sticker Rolls or Sheets
    • Ink or Wax Stamps
    • Branded Tape
    • Tissue Paper
    • Thank You Cards
    • Food-Safe Paper
    • Eco-Friendly Options

      Strategic Brand Consulting

      We get it. There are so many difficult parts to being a creative biz owner. Usually, our minds are filled with too many good ideas, but we struggle to see things as clearly as we’d like. 

      Ever read the quote, “You can’t read the label from inside the jar”? We see it all the time—you’re so closely intertwined with your business from the inside that it’s a struggle to see things objectively.

      That’s why we love these 1:1 sessions and think you will too. You’ll get 90 minutes of undivided 1:1 time with our Creative Director & Founder, Jess Avolio, giving you the space to get outside of your own head and bounce ideas off a fellow creative mind who is excited to share all the helpful goodies they possibly can. Our goal will be for you to leave with a newfound sense of clarity and inspiration.

      We can work through:
      • Clarifying Your Vision
      • Sorting Through Ideas
      • Finding What’s Working
      • Finding What’s Not
      • Identifying How You Stand Out
      • Completing a Site or Social Audit
      • Brainstorming New Ideas
      • Serving Actionable Advice
      • Offering General Guidance
      • Sharing Emotional Support

        — Liminal States

        Frequently Asked Questions

        Nicole Gagnon, Rare Olive

        “Every time I use the logo on anything it makes me so happy—like, a literal smile comes on my face when I’m sticking stickers on boxes or stamping packaging. Just knowing we did so much work behind the scenes to get that ‘brand story’ nailed down gave me that confidence I needed. I didn’t have that with my original brand, and what a difference it makes. I just feel so darn proud of what we created!”

        Cheryl Peng, Untamed Artistry

        “Liminal States helped bring my wildest design dreams to life! It’s not only because the final work always ends up looking jaw-dropping. What I respect more than anything else is their inside-out approach of what the brand really means to the founder and the people it seeks to impact. Thank you for creating this for me and the people I seek to impact!”

        Tijen & Ashley, Earth Kisses Sky

        “Previously, our brand never felt like ‘us’—but Liminal States truly understood our vision and designed everything to completely match our vibe. They are responsive, creative, and extremely knowledgeable. Our brand has really taken off since we started working together. I can’t imagine not having them working by our side!”

        Caranina Bertone, Caranina

        “Thank you for your guidance in helping me launch! I wouldn’t have been able to do it without you. The inspiration is constantly flowing. I love handing out my business cards just because of how stunning they are. Everything you designed is simply perfect and works so well to convey the messages and values. Seriously, you do the most incredible work!”

        Carissa Kimbell, Carissa Kimbell

        “Working with Liminal States was like working with a dear friend. I felt they deeply understood my vision from every angle and I immediately knew I could trust them to bring our ideas to life thanks to thoughtful questions & exercises that helped me gain clarity around what I wanted. They were supportive throughout the entire process. I’m so glad that I decided to take the leap and follow my intuition.”

        Alison James, Alison James Therapy

        “Before my brand was feeling tired and typical and I didn’t feel it was an accurate reflection of where I was, or where I wanted to go. Rebranding with Liminal States was an absolute dream. The process was clear, streamlined, nuanced, and deep, resulting in visuals that were far beyond what I could have hoped for. They put a lot of effort into understanding me, and that really came across in the brand identity. This experience was an invaluable investment.”

        Allie Witek, @supportbyallie

        “Our design sessions were such a great investment! I loved that I could choose the focus and we were able to go through it step by step together – building out ideas and playing around. They really boosted my confidence and made me feel like I had so many options while still sticking true to my brand and aesthetic! Having the ability to go back and watch the recordings are an added bonus.”

        Nicole Rostecki, Hello Branding Studio

        “I did one session of the 1:1 Design Training with Jess to refresh some of my skills and it was great! It was nice to be reminded of little Illustrator tips & tricks that I lost over the years. I also really love that we screen recorded our session so I could refer back to it.”
