There may not be a lot of people buying scrunchies in bulk, but if there's a package design cute enough to tempt you into buying just one, it's this one by Prompt Design.

The [scrunchie packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emi-jay-blind-box) takes inspiration from the natural shape of a skirt or a tutu. Although you might not naturally make this connection on your own, the rest of the packaging is completed with the figure of a woman who is playfully modeling her scrunchie-skirt.

The design was created to help the [hair ties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clementine-grove) stand out and appeal to kids. Since the packaging is almost like having a [doll play dress up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-signature-2024-holiday-doll), it's clever and charming, as well as versatile, since the scrunchie need only be secured around the rectangular part of the packaging, where the illustrations easily be changed as needed.
