A packaging structure for at least one article includes a pair of generally rectangular support structures with front, side, rear, and interior walls. The walls divide the rectangular support structure into a plurality of triangular sections. The front and interior walls contain a least one opening configured to correspond with the configuration of the article to hold and secure the article in place. The packaging structure is created from a rectangular blank made of foldable material that has a plurality of spaced vertical fold lines, panels, and aligned openings each configured to correspond with the configuration of the article. The packaging structure is formed by folding the blank along the fold lines and securing the blank in the folded condition. The blanks are formed first within computer aided design software by determining the dimensions and profile of a packaging structure, forming openings for an article in a packaging structure, unfolding the packaging structure within the design software into a flat pattern to form a master blank, and using the master blank to create cutting dies for forming additional blanks.

1. A packaging structure for at least one article, comprising a pair of independent generally rectangular support structures each including a front wall, a pair of side walls connected with said front wall, a rear wall connected with said side walls and interior walls connected with opposite edges of said side and rear walls to divide said rectangular support structure into a plurality of triangular sections, said front and interior walls containing a least one opening to define at least one three-dimensional compartment configured to correspond with the configuration of the article, whereby when the article is placed within said compartments of said support structures and said support structures are aligned with said front walls in contiguous relation, the article is retained within said support strictures. 2. A packaging structure as defined in claim 1, wherein said packaging structure is configured as a right rectangular prism. 3. A packaging structure as defined in claim 1, wherein said front and interior walls comprise two wall layers. 4. A blank for forming a rectangular support structure for at least one article, comprising a rectangular piece of foldable material containing a plurality of spaced vertical fold lines which define a central panel which comprises a front wall of the rectangular support structure and a pair of elongated portions extending outwardly from each side of said central panel and including a plurality of spaced fold lines defining in sequence first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth panels in a direction from said central panel to opposing ends of the blank, said first, second and sixth panels being foldable about adjacent fold lines to define a first triangular section of the rectangular support structure and said third, fourth and fifth panels being foldable about adjacent fold lines to define a second triangular section of the rectangular support structure adjacent to said first triangular section, said first panel defining a side wall of the support structure and said fourth panel defining a portion of a rear wall of the support structure, said central panel containing at least one opening, said second and third panels and said fifth and sixth panels containing at least one opening corresponding with said central panel opening and bridging a fold line between said second and third panels and said fifth and sixth panels, respectively, whereby when said first through sixth panels of each of said elongated portions are folded inwardly toward said central panel to form said first and second triangular portions and the rectangular support structure, said openings are aligned to receive and support at least one article. 5. A blank as defined in claim 4, wherein said central panel has a fold line on opposite sides of said central panel, wherein each fold line contains at least one opening and wherein said foldable material further comprises at least one projection at outer ends of said elongated portions which interlocks with said openings on opposite sides of said central panel to retain the support structure in a folded condition. 6. A blank as defined in claim 4, wherein said foldable material comprises one of cardboard, fiberboard, or corrugated plastic.
