| How To Make an Origami Gift
Box |
|
You Will
Need
- A4 sheet of paper (legal or letter will work)
|
| |
| Steps |
 Fold
paper in half length wise
 Cut
the paper in half along the fold
 Cut
1 cm off 1cm off one of the half's, This will be the bottom
 Fold
the bottom in 1/2 the long way then unfold it.
 Fold
the paper in half width wise then unfold it
 Fold
one side to the center (1/4 fold), width wise
 Fold
the other end to butt up to the other sides edge (3/4 fold) then unfold
both.
 Fold
one end to the 1/4 fold line (1/8 fold)
 Fold
the other end to butt up to the other sides edge (7/8 fold) then unfold
Do the same fold to the other side of the paper
 Fold
the diagonals in the bottom 8 rectangles
 Continue
folding all 8 diagonals
 With
the diagonals crease pointing up
 Fold
the top part with the 8 rectangles down leaving a little space to the
centerline as shown then unfold
 Now
fold the top part with the 8 rectangles to the side where the diagonals
are mountain folds and unfold
 Fold
it into a pentagon.. so we need a 3 rectangle overlap by inserting
one end into the bottom fold on the other end to create a pentagon
 Make
sure the 3 rectangles exactly overlap each other
 Now
fold the top over, one at a time till you get the the last fold
 the
last top fold, you push the middle down so that it pops in to form a
top
 Fold
the tops corned extending bits under
 No
do the same to the top part of the box
