This year in an ornament swap, I received all kinds of goodies, and a hidden “who knew” kind of goodies. One of the little ornaments came in a handmade origami box.

This little box started a flurry of box making obsession at my house. My kids made a ton of boxes for their holiday gift giving, and I am excited, as I will never have to purchase a gift box for my jewelry again.

I actually started using the handmade boxes for my Etsy orders, and have received nothing but positive feed-back. It’s a great way to use all that wonderful scrap-booking paper I don’t actually use for scrap-booking.
There are actually lots of how-to origami box instructions out there. I’m just adding another one to the mix. Hope its helpful!
