Wine Bottle-Shaped Accordion Brochure: 60-Second Fold of the Week
With all of the baking and wine drinking going on as many of us are home sheltering in place, this week's award-winning wine bottle-shaped accordion seemed like the perfect choice!
Beautifully executed by On Line Bindery of Richmond, Calif., using lots of special print finishing effects, this six-panel shaped accordion is the exact shape and size of a wine bottle when folded. They used a mobile in-line diecutting device called a Pro Cut to diecut the piece after the folding process. The registration is perfection. A must-see, and a great idea for special events and promotions.
