Origami Boxes Review & GIVEAWAY

Learn how to fold paper into packets you can use! Origami Boxes features instructions for 8 container folds and includes 200 sheets of colorful 7 x 7 inch folding paper. These easy to remove sheets come in 20 different patterns and colors. With designs from 7 noted origami experts each model is distinctly different from the next. Contributors include Vanda Battaglia, Riccardo Colletto, Francesco Decio, Rita Foelker, Max Hulme, Francesco Mancini and Nick Robinson. So far I've folded the tray for treats, wedding favor, Arlington box and fortune purse. I found the detailed diagram and text instructions very clear. Two of the designs were created specifically as favors, one for a wedding and the other a baptism. The complete table of contents is listed below. Dover Publications will release this 256 page paperback on April 15, 2020. It is available now for pre-order. Get your copy below!
