Packaging Contents: 2 Sandpaper Packages
Packaging Material: Paper

The challenge was to find a product worth 75 cents and package it in a new and interesting way. I chose to package sandpaper because I can never remember how the number relates to the grit of the sandpaper. I used the fur of woodland animals to create a package that makes it easy for anyone to know how rough the sandpaper is just by looking at the animal. The hedgehog is a rough 80 grit sandpaper, while the rabbit is a smoother 120 grit paper. The packaging also makes it more fun and appealing for children who have to go to the store with their parent or want to help their parent with a small building project.
