Origami Hexagonal Gift Box Tutorial

PLEASE CHECK OUT SECOND VIDEO FOR SQUASH FOLDS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bh4Yfjq9CA <br />The cute Rilakkuma stickers were sent to me by http://www.coolpencilcase.com <br />You can check out what they sent me at 16:15 on the video! <br />They also sent me a cute Japanese style doll fineliner pen, 2 pink Sticker glitter craft pens, a red art mechanical pencil, and a pink gel neon highlighter to try out. <br />My favourite is the neon highlighter, it goes on quite rough, and then you can use your fingers to soften it out, it looks pretty bright! <br />The Glitter pens are nice but I am not too skilled using them as you can see if you got to the to the end of the video..! The fineliner is of very good quality, I will use this a lot! I like the red mechanical pencil too, very useful! <br /> <br />Please make sure the annotations are turned on! <br /> <br />This hexagonal gift box is perfect as a gift box. <br />You will need: <br />2 x A4 paper (21 x 29.7 cm / 8.2 x 11.6 inches) <br />paper clip <br />bull-dog clip or small paper clip <br />Ruler and knife or scissors. <br /> <br />I tried my best to show you how to squash down the inside of the box and then the outside of the lid, but as you can (or can't) see, its a bit of a fiddle! <br />Just keep trying, make sure the folds are pretty precise and eventually you can just push it down and it will fall into place. <br />I wouldn't say it is advanced, I find the modular boxes a lot harder, more complicated and honestly, kind of ugly. :) <br /> <br />Please leave a comment, maybe I can help if you get stuck, if enough people ask, I can try and video again the squashing part at 06:21 and 12:29 :) <br /> <br />More info on the origami model, and diagram: <br /> <br />http://www.paperkawaii.com/2012/03/08/video-tutorial-origami-hexagonal-gift-box/ <br /> <br />I do the squash folds again here: <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bh4Yfjq9CA <br /> <br />Origami design by Tomoko Fuse
