How to make an Origami Gift Box

I show you how to make an origami gift box. This is a beginner level origami project. If you have never done Origami this is a nice project to start with. You just need eight squares of paper. Perfect for putting little gifts into. And Valentines Day is coming up.

Interesting. I make boxes for gifts, and they are alot easier to do than this. They are all made with one piece of square paper without any insertions. However, you couldn't make it my way and have different colored papers unless you decorate it after the box is completed. I am guessing origami is a unique thing in itself.

@Saffron49 will you make any vids of how you create the boxes? I would love to see how you do it.
