I came up with many different sketches as far as the visual design of the outer packaging. My favorite idea so far is to create a white package with literal splashes of color all over. I love the yellow "swoosh" beneath the logo, as it is reminiscent of a smile, which Crayola has previously alluded to in their crayon packaging. (You can see this in my previous blog post for this project.) Here is my concept:

As far as the physical 3D design of the package, I am still somewhat undecided. My initial sketches were of a box in the shape of a sort of lunchbox with a handle. I'm still leaning towards the box-with-a-handle idea, as traditional Crayola crayon packages tend to stay along the lines of simple, rectangular boxes. Another idea I had was to create a cylindrical package with a string or handle on top. Whichever design I decide to use, I also want to incorporate the "built-in sharpener" that Crayola often includes in its crayon packaging. I found a template for a box with a handle that I could alter to fit my needs:

Here is an example of what I'm thinking of doing if I were to go with the cylinder box:
