Origami Heart Gift Box – Lesson 4

ANOTHER useful origami gift box you can use!

I had quite a few feedback from beginner / intermediate origami folders that they would like to learn how to make an aesthetically pleasing design that requires only a sheet of paper to make a lid and a box.

I did a little bit of research and found out about the British origami master Robin Glynn. He creates several box patterns and shares what I call “recipes of origami” on his website. I have pasted his link below – you can see some other cool stuff there along with this heart box.

I reproduced the photo gallery for you with some additional explanation in details for points I found that could get confusing for some people.
