Origami Hexagonal Gift Box Tutorial - 1 Sheet DIY - Paper Kawaii

Learn how to make a hexagonal origami box from 1 sheet of paper, no glue required. These pretty origami gift boxes can have either a hexagon or star shape on the top. These origami boxes use a well known twisting method in order to collapse, this one is based on an envelope that I created 4 years ago ( was always hoping to combine this pattern with a twist box. A 5, 7 & 8 sided version is also possible. I think I will only make a tutorial for the 7 & 8 sided one. 8 sided one will be posted next. I really like the shape of the star on top but you can also leave it as a hexagon, or create other variations, I have one here that looks like petals. In order to create a sturdier box (if using thinner paper or something), at 6:00 you could fold up in thirds, so that when you slot the two ends together, the rim of the lid is sturdier. The same thing can be done with the lower box. If using thick paper or card, it’s not necessary in my opinion anyway. Design: © Pape
