oschene Fabric Origami Box

I presented entries about fabric origami before, I find it this time still more interesting because it’s a fabric origami box.

Modular Rectangular Box

Rosemary Lyndall Wemm Modular Rectangular Box

I find those rectangular folded boxes absolutely great!

Unfortunately I discovered them too late, but if you haven’t begun yet (oops! ;-)), they are great for an Advent calendar, too ;-)
But take your time, I once made an Advent calendar from similar, but square boxes (instructions from a book) and it took foreeever to finish it.
I use it nearly every year though and it is still beautiful ;-)

And apart from that you can still use them for the Christmas gifts, I think that it would look wonderful, too :)

Tower Boxes

Winson Chan Tower Box

I like to fold Origami boxes but these are even better: you can stack them.

Once I folded them and used them for little beads but by now I have thrown them away.
Actually it’s a pity.

unikatissima Teabag Box

Once I browsed flickr and found the Teabag Problem Box. He called it this way because some teas are packed in such boxes.
But what I liked best is the the fact that he ‘offers’ the creasing pattern directly (see links below).

On the photo you can see my first try. I burned some CD’s and used the paper where you write what’s on the CD and that I usually throw away for this box.
I think it’s not too bad for a first try ;-)
They can easily be used for an advent calendar.

I looked further for boxes usable for advent calendars and found the following:

Furthermore there are links on how to decorate in the entry Pattern Paper.

And what can you put into the boxes?
