I have previously made triangular boxes from 3 modules and wanted to try out one from a single sheet of paper. And found out Thoki Yenn's triangular box, where both the box and the lid are made from a single sheet of A4 size paper.

I love how economical the box and lid is! The box is made from half the A4 paper and the lid from half a square from the same sheet. The instructions sound quite complex, but making these boxes is actually quite simple.

I like making boxes from single sheets of paper. For one thing, they are quite economical and for another, you can just grab a piece of paper and start working on the box!

This pentagonal box is designed by Rikki Donachie and is made from a single A4 sheet of paper. It is quite easy to fold. I folded the base such that the height was a little more than the lid. Otherwise, both base and lid were the same.

Butterfly earrings are not very easy to make, but the earrings that result from them are quite beautiful. Well, what else would you expect from a butterfly? :)

I liked the green earrings that I made. I had included green butterfly beads as well and loved how the whole thing turned out! Another of my earrings that I ended up keeping with me, since I couldn't bear to part with them!

I hadn't come across any 5-sided modular boxes until recently. Modular pentagonal boxes are not very common and one of the first pentagonal box I came across was Dennis Walker's Cherry Blossom Box.

A very pretty box to fold, it ends up with a star shape in the top and 5 petals on top of the star. It folds best with 80 gsm paper. I had this beautiful gift wrapper paper which worked out very well.

This spider from Eric Keneeway's book 'Complete Origami' is a fairly easy origami to do. But a little bit of kirigami also comes into play, so origami purists would not be keen on folding this little guy, I suppose.

The origami starts with a a frog base and builds up on that. I folded this from 8-inch square 60 gsm paper. It should be mentioned that there are plenty of layers of folds that go into the model. So thin paper is an absolute must.
