Origami box, made by hand according to the scheme, will be an excellent packaging for the gift.
Origami, a box that you can make withpaper according to the detailed description of the work, is relevant in many cases. Its assembly is not a complicated process and is within the power of even those who have never been interested in origami technique. Origami is perhaps the most original form of art that will be within the power of any person, of any age. That is, even small children can be taught to make simple figures. For example, boats, frogs, cranes, and so on. By the way, the crane, also called the "crane of happiness", is an international symbol of origami.
There are many legends associated with the crane.In Japan, this paper figure is considered a symbol of happiness, love, hope and faith. There is a belief that if a person makes a thousand cranes and then gives them to all his relatives and friends, then his most cherished wish will definitely come true. In the first half of the twentieth century, this technique was known only in Japan, Korea, China and neighboring countries. But after a short period of time, there were many fans from all over the world. Even kindergartens and institutions began to teach how to make paper figures. And for good reason, because many children find this activity interesting, teach them to work in a team, and in addition, it can develop logical thinking and motor skills. And now I want to draw your attention to how easy and simple it is to make a gift box with your own hands, spending a minimum of money and time on it.
One of the simplest ones will be presented to youways to make an origami box. Everyone should be able to handle it, even beginners, as well as children. You can put anything in it, of course, it all depends on the size. For example, a gift of absolutely any format. You can also put homemade baked goods, namely cakes, cookies or donuts, and so on. Below we will describe how you can assemble an origami box with your own hands. You will need: paper, preferably thick; scissors; a plastic stack, it will make working with paper easier; decorations to your taste. So, to begin with, we will need two large squares, in principle, it all depends on what size box you need. The only nuance is that the size of one square should be a few millimeters larger than the size of the second. First, you need to fold the paper in the middle, go over the resulting fold with a stack. Then you need to open it and fold it on the other side in exactly the same way. Once again, we repeat the manipulation of opening the sheet, it is folded with one corner to the other, so that in the end you get a triangular-shaped blank. The sheet is unfolded. The middle is the point where all the fold lines intersect. Next, fold every fourth corner towards the middle. Note that the edges should not overlap. Then one side must be folded towards the center. Fold the second in the same way. The edges must be close to each other, but not overlap each other. The other two sides must be folded in the same way as the previous ones. This way, you get the lines along which you need to assemble the origami box. As a result, the walls of the product must be closed. Close the remaining sides of the box. Now cut out a square of the required size and glue it to the bottom. The second half of the box, which is also the lid, is made in the same way as the previous one. It should be a few millimeters larger in diameter so that it closes freely.
The box is ready.If you followed the instructions exactly, you should have a box like the one pictured above, or even better. I hope you'll be happy with the results.
