Although there is a lot of emphasis that tends to be put on getting a product off of the shelves and home with consumers through attention-grabbing packaging, there are few designs that propose ways the containers can be used afterwards, as oil bottle packaging does.
Rather than going in the garbage or recycling, this olive oil packaging from Typuglia features a cutout where the bottle can be removed. From there, the cardboard shape can be modified slightly to work along with an electrical cord and a light bulb in order to turn it into a working piece of decor rather than something to be discarded. The simple, protective packaging even comes with its own set of instructions to help consumers with the upcycling project.
