Christmas Origami - Hexagonal gift box

There you have it! A new box, by Tomoko Fuse of course! :) This is a beautiful hexagonal box with a pattern that looks like a flower on the lid. This is a modular origami made ​​with 4 squares of identical size, here I took 15 cm (6") wide squares. Some of you may not like modular origami because it is often pretty long to fold, but this one is a good example of how you can achieve a very nice result with little effort (only 2 modules for the bottom of the box, on 2 others for the lid). I found the result to be even nicer when folded from a mix of plain colour and leaf patterned sheets. It may be used to hide a gift, or be the gift itself! But beware, you have to be meticulous to achieve this origami. Better to have - even a small - modular origami experience before taking the plunge. It is a good idea, for instance, to know the simpler square boxes by Tomoko Fuse as a basis. For new and original origami video tutorials, come and visit us at http://www.senbazuru.eu !
