With the current economic situation, you’d expect work to be drying up but things have been pretty crazy around the Toast studio recently - juggling numerous print and packaging design projects, motion design, product photography, interviewing (yes, we’re THAT busy) and a lot of web work. We’re very excited to be nearing completion of phase one of Gardening Central which has been a huge undertaking for us, but it won’t end there.
You can stalk us on twitter, facebook and YouTube and if you need some design work done, don’t hesitate to drop us a line. We don’t bite, often.

Target audience: Well, that doesn’t need explaining.
The Time 2 Party Sparkling Fairy Wings set features fiber-optic lights in both the wings and wand, and we decided the best way to convey this feature which is absent in the standard set (for which we also designed packaging), was to feature a metallic silver ink, to bring some sparkle to the packaging and reinforce the luminous properties of the product.
Sparkling on a shelf near you soon.
