In the photo, you can see it is great for storing pens and pencils on a desk, or stationery items such as rubber, sharpeners, and even small calculators. There are also a few to organize makeup inside drawers, and you can make larger ones from A3- or A2-sized sheets of paper, which make great drawer organizers for kids’ clothes. This simple origami box takes only a few minutes to fold and requires very few origami tools. Usually, origami starts with a square sheet, this time it will be rectangular. You can start with any size of the rectangle. If you use a longer rectangle, the box will end up less rectangular. If you are looking for a fancier style of origami box, try the Star Dish, or for more of a challenge, the Cake Box—for intermediate to advanced folders!
