Packaging
According to one aspect, a packaging includes a first panel including a first end and a second end, wherein first and second opposing perimeter side edges define the first panel and extend between the first end and the second end, and a first area having an inside surface is defined by the first end, the second end, and the perimeter side edges. A second panel includes a third end and a fourth end, wherein third and fourth opposing perimeter side edges define the second panel and extend between the third end and the fourth end, a second area having an inside surface is defined by the third end, the fourth end, and the perimeter side edges and wherein the second end is coupled to the third end at a first fold line. First and second tongues extend from third and fourth opposing perimeter side edges, respectively, at second and third fold lines, respectively. When the first panel is folded toward the second panel about the first fold line and the first and second tongues are folded about the second and third fold lines, respectively, the first and second tongues couple the first panel and the second panel. Further, the first end is coupled to the fourth end and the first area and the second area are free of fold lines and flaps.

The packaging of claim 1 , wherein when the first panel is folded toward the second panel about the first fold line and the first tongue and second tongue are folded about the second and third fold lines, the first tongue and the second tongue are disposed between the first panel and the second panel.
6. The packaging of claim 1 , wherein the first panel defines a first aperture proximal the first end and the second panel defines a second aperture proximal the fourth end, and wherein when the first panel is folded about the first fold line toward the second panel, the first and second apertures at least partially align.
7. The packaging of claim 6 , further including adhesive adjacent the first aperture adapted to couple the first area inside surface to the second area inside surface when the first panel is folded about the first fold line relative to the second panel.
8. The packaging of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first, second, third, and fourth opposing perimeter side edges is nonlinear.
9. The packaging of claim 1 , where the first fold line includes spaced apart slots.
10. The packaging of claim 1 , further including first adhesive on the first panel and second adhesive on the first panel, the first adhesive and the second adhesive being substantially symmetric about a longitudinal axis of the substrate, wherein the first adhesive is spaced apart from the second adhesive.
11. A packaging, comprising:
a first panel including a first end and a second end, first and second opposing perimeter side edges defining the first panel and extending between the first end and the second end, wherein the first end and the perimeter side edges are free of fold lines and flaps;
a second panel including a third end and a fourth end, third and fourth opposing perimeter side edges defining the second panel and extending between the third end and the fourth end, wherein the second panel is free of fold lines and flaps, and wherein the second end is coupled to the third end at a first fold line and the first panel is substantially identical to the second panel; and
first and second tongues extending from the third and fourth opposing perimeter side edges, respectively, at second and third fold lines, respectively, wherein when the first panel is folded toward the second panel about the first fold line and the first and second tongues are folded about the second and third fold lines, respectively, the first and second tongues couple the first panel and the second panel, and wherein a portion of the first panel spaced from the first end is coupled to a portion of the second panel spaced from the fourth end.
12. The packaging of claim 11 , further including adhesive on one or more of the first tongue, the second tongue, and the first panel adapted to couple the first panel to the first tongue and the second tongue.
13. The packaging of claim 11 , further including adhesive that couples the portion of the first panel to the portion of the second panel.
14. The packaging of claim 13 , wherein the substrate is symmetric about a longitudinal axis of the substrate and asymmetric about a transverse axis of the substrate.
15. The packaging of claim 14 , wherein when the first panel is folded toward the second panel about the first fold line and the first tongue and second tongue are folded about the second and third fold lines, the first tongue and the second tongue are disposed between the first panel and the second panel.
