Squeezable Self-Standing Dimensional Mailer - 60-Second Fold of the Week
Can a folded mailer have a ... baby brother? There's a pint-sized surprise in this week's episode that highlights a fun and squeezable solution from 3D Paper Graphics in Old Saybrook, Conn. The "Squeeze-It" format was used as an invitation for a grand opening celebration at the Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine.
It shipped flat in an A6 envelope, but when squeezed from both sides, it locks into a self-standing dimensional format. Be sure to watch for the "little" surprise at the end of the episode!
