Abstract: ABSTRACT TRANSFORMABLE LIGHT BULB PACKAGING STRUCTURE WITH INTEGRATED FOLDABLE LAMPSHADE CONFIGURATION The present invention discloses a transformable light bulb packaging structure (100) formed from a unitary sheet of 300 GSM paperboard material that is selectively transformable between a first closed packaging configuration for protectively enclosing a light bulb during transit and storage, and a second open lampshade configuration for functioning as a decorative lampshade. The structure comprises an upper collar portion (110) with a central bulb-receiving aperture (112), a plurality of foldable body panels (120), petal-shaped extension panels (130), a perforation zone (140) with decorative apertures (142), pre-scored fold lines (150), and interlocking tab-and-slot mechanisms (160). In the packaging mode, the panels fold inward to form a protective enclosure. In the lampshade mode, the body panels extend downward and the petal-shaped extensions curl outward creating a floral silhouette, while the perforations project decorative light patterns onto surrounding surfaces. The tool-free transformation promotes sustainability by eliminating single-use packaging waste. [
