<p>Here’s a guide to making a box lid by assembling pieces. You can make a box simply by combining four pieces folded in the same way. You’ll want to make lots of these tiny boxes that fit right in the palm of your hand. Since the lid is shaped like a flower, you can give it as a gift just as it is—no ribbon needed. Why not give it a try and make one? Here, we are using four 7.5 cm × 7.5 cm sheets of origami paper. First, make the box lid, and then make the box bottom. Make the box lid parts 　 First, fold it in half [&#8230;]</p>
