25: TP + Wine Packaging

Tim + Paula's 25th Wedding Anniversary
TP + Wine Packaging
For my parent's 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I had to do something special.  But also unexpected.  So I created TP + wine packaging, as well as the copywrite to go with it.  Until I get a proper photos, these mockups look almost EXACTLY like the actual gift, except the TP packaging wraps much more convincingly around the TP in real life.  The wine is Clean Slate, rubbed clean of its elegant packaging, because my mother is so picky I have to use her one of 5 wines she will actually drink.

On the TP it states (in Code Bold and Light typefaces, which are free!):
"when things go to shit, you clean it up, and you keep on rolling.  eventually you can relax with wine, and
drink with good friends.  then you grab some more rolls, and tp the neighborhood.

Comparing marriage to toilet paper and wine might seem odd, insulting, or just plain confusing.  but
that's because in a traditional marriage, reality is everything but traditional. 

here's to hoping the next 25 years, are just as untraditionally fabulous, congratulations on your not
so traditional accomplishment!"

The labels state:
"Congratulations"
"Twue wove, that dweam within a dweam."  (my favorite marriage quote, from The Princess Bride.)
Photoshop mockup.  I'm pleased to say it looks startlingly familiar to what I actually gave them, which was 2 TP rolls and a bottle of wine.  (yes, even this wine bottle is the exact same wine bottle i had used.)
