Product Packaging Design for eCommerce Brands
WildHive Studio designs product packaging for eCommerce brands, including labels, boxes and complete packaging systems that stay consistent across every product variation. Packaging design starts at $2,500 for up to 2 packaging pieces with up to 10 variations, like scents, flavors or sizes. Projects are designed in one focused week once your dielines are ready.
Packaging that looks as good as what's inside
Your product might be excellent. But online, customers meet your packaging before they ever touch the product. It's in your product photos, your unboxing videos and every tagged post.
When packaging looks homemade or inconsistent, customers assume the product is too. When it's cohesive and intentional, it does the opposite. It supports your price, builds trust at first glance and makes people want to share it.
What’s Included
Starting at $2,500
Up to 2 packaging pieces: for example, a product box and a label, or a label and a hang tag
Up to 10 variations on one shared design system, like scents, flavors, shades or sizes

Larger Packaging Projects
Every product line is different, so bigger projects are quoted after a short call. That includes projects with more packaging pieces, shipping boxes, inserts, a complete unboxing experience or a large product line. You'll know the exact investment before we start.
Built for how eCommerce packaging actually works
Packaging for online brands has a different job than packaging on a store shelf. It has to photograph well on a product page, survive shipping, feel special to unbox and hold up when customers post it.
I started my career as a packaging designer at Justice and have since designed for Highlights and Steve Madden, along with independent product brands. That experience shapes every project, from how a label reads at thumbnail size to how a design system stretches when you add your 11th scent.
