Valentine’s Pencils

Objective

Create a fun design for pencils to be sold during the Valentine’s season that parents would approve of and kids would enjoy. These pencils were most frequently used as ways for PTAs and schools to raise money so they needed to be approved by the school district.

Challenge

Commonly when people purchase scented pencils individually they pick out which scents they like the most and the fundraiser organizer is left with a large amount of one fragrance they can’t sell.

Solution

I wanted to give each pencil a fun and unique character on each cap. I decided to use a different animal to correspond to the unique fragrances we had chosen. Since they would be bought individually I wanted to make each topper unique to promote the purchase of more than one. This also gave the kids and parents the opportunity to collect them all.
