Origami News & Views February 2011
I turned my pile of
holiday greeting cards into three origami boxes and an easy modular
unit (links to folding instructions below). |

Sort through your cards looking for ones with borders, special textures, like flocking, and illustrations or photos that make them ideal for display in the modular unit (click for how-to). |
 |
A metallic gel pen is an attractive way of noting the sender of each card. |
 |
Cards with borders make cute candy dish boxes (click for how-to). The border runs all the way around the bottom of edge of the box. |
 |
| I chose beautiful
embossed and flocked cards for masu
boxes (click
for how-to). An old pierced earring made an ideal button for the top of the red-flocked box. I shop for earrings at my local thrift store. I finished the insides with matching pieces. |

| The Glossy Accents product adds even more shine and dimension to a flower on a box lid. |  |
