Let’s customize the classic origami box and make a pig-shaped box.

Place the origami with the white side facing up, and first fold the bottom two corners to meet at the center.

Flip the paper over, and fold the remaining corners the same way.

Then flip the paper over once more and fold all four corners to the center.

You should now see two white squares on the back; fold both of them into triangles to make the ears.

After making three equal folds to crease the paper, unfold two of the four corners you brought to the center—the two that are not two-toned—and then refold them inward to finish shaping the box.

In conclusion

The joy of making a box with origami lies in the process of a single sheet of paper transforming into a three-dimensional object.

Even with simple folds, the finished piece is exceptionally beautiful and can be used as a small container or a gift box.

People of all ages can enjoy working with their hands together—why not add a touch of color to your daily life?
