Origami Octagon Box - 1st Variation


After working on the 4th variation in the last post, I decided to try out one final variation of the octagonal boxes from Tomoko Fuse's 'Joyful Origami Boxes' before moving on to other models.

Yet again, I decided to use my double-sided paper - in this case, paper that is blue on one side and printed with little flowers on the other. And yet again, only the final module is provided and it is up to us to figure out the method to fold. This is the 1st variation on page 72.

Each paper square that I have used is 3 inches in size and the end result is an attractive box, about 2.5 inches across. For the base, instead of using the same double-sided paper, I used blue 3-inch squares of printer paper. That ensured that the base was very sturdy.


With this, I am done with the boxes from Joyful Origami Boxes. I will definitely revisit this book at a later date, since it still has a number of lovely boxes for me to try out 😃
