How to fold this style of soap box

[wellysoaper]

Does anyone know how to fold a box similar to this? Just looking for video or visual instructions. Thanks

To me it looks like an over-sized cigar band. But, here is a site where you can make custom box templates:

@ResolvableOwl @KiwiMoose
The website mentioned above has a polygonal box template!

I find the label itself a bit deceptive. Raw? After saponification with lye?

I'd say it's more like 'natural'...not processed like Sugar in the Raw

Perhaps raw=CP?

Perhaps, but even CP soap "cooks" itself through the heat generated via saponification.

Thanks, but actually this hasn't been the first time that @artemis has shared this link.

If you look at the bottom of the bar, particularly the camera right bottom corner, you can see that the white label and the black bottom are not the same and not in line; the black bottom is a little smaller than the white label. I'm convinced this is just a wrapped label and the actual soap itself has a black layer at the bottom.

I'm not going to apologize

@AliOop good catch. imho raw would be oils / lye just comes together next the the Magic / Fun Begins. lol .

I’m SUPER super thankful for the post. I’ve a serious paper fetish & can now make my own box with the hordes of card stock I have on my hands!

In my head the whole time too, lol. I've been wondering why @wellysoaper has called it a “box” at all in the beginning. Thought what might be so difficult in gluing a string of paper to itself (cigar band) that you need instructions for it?
Regardless, having a box with a closed bottom is an entirely viable and attractive way to package soap, regardless if it started out with an misunderstanding of the effort that Sunny Bunny Garden's put into their packaging.

It's definitely a cigar band style wrap. Here's another soap from their website that shows it quite clearly. The thing I don't understand is why are they using a cat in their logo when their name is Sunny Bunny? I don't see any bunnies.

As a self-proclaimed crazy cat person myself, I totally understand why they are using a cat in their logo. In all seriousness, I think it's more of a mascot thing rather than a logo thing.

 

[ResolvableOwl]

Cognitive dissonance as a marketing gag? Someone not too firm in mammal zoology? Idk, but I've heard that cat content goes like hot cakes in teh interwebz.

 

[dibbles]

Maybe the cat's name is Bunny ?

The wider card box (with a shaved off top) was what I was after. Thanks Artemis
