Fun Pakaging Design

I found a great blog for packaging design inspiration: "The Dieline" (http://www.thedieline.com) posts all kinds of creative and awesome package designs, from wine labels, to soap dispensers, to kitchen supplies. The designs they show are such an inspiration for clever ideas, good typography, and visual aesthetic. Their post of the "Living Earth" designs was particularly interesting. Their packaging for composts contains beautifully simple typography with images made out of basic geometric shapes, and a limited palette of a couple of bright colors. The result is a clean yet cute design for a normally uninteresting product. 
I also loved the "Zing" designs for kitchen supplies. Brightly colored utensils are accompanied by a talk-bubble that states the item's name like "I'm a Spatula!".  I thought this personification was so clever! It shows that just the right phrase can really make your product design work.
