How to make a Christmas Star Gift Box

[@chineseroxs]

Just made one using colored origami paper and it looks really cool :). Thanks for sharing the tutorial on how to make this. I'm an intermediate level but I had to use tape as assistance to make sure pieces wouldn't fall out while in assembly. Also, a tip for those making this: when assembling, the little triangle you fold in the beginning should be fixed towards the end to where the middle crease of the triangle meets the crease on the paper and that will insure you it will fit perfectly :)

[@danbergamondo]

It's fantastic! And the tutorial is clear and very, very understandable... as usual for you! 5* and adding it to my favourites! Merry Christmas! :-D

[@Radjehuty]

haha. I actually found it helpful to use a toothpick on the locks. If you unfold the pocket you can use a toothpick to pull out the little triangle part of the pocket far enough for the flap of the other module to insert under. Then you fold back that triangle and close the pocket to form a strong lock. I was stupid enough to try this model for the first time on foil paper, but I got lucky and did it alright. I assume you made a lid for this with slightly smaller or larger paper?

OMG!! I'm finished in 20 mins!! And I'm only 12!! This is an awsome vid!!

[@NuLLm3riDiaN]

I do like most of your tutorials because they are easy to fold along with and spare me a lot of time by folding from CP but this one is really nuts. In the end i was able to achieve the finish but i can pretty much figure that many people didn't have had a small idea how to complete this model because you used precreased papers so the people were left alone to do the math on their own at the circled points folds. I would be really nice to see you folding from blanc paper next time ;)

[@BeingBeverly1]

I like your vid! You make it look understandable with the hand motion and the text - {which I guess some people can't read if they are complaining you need to talk}...but I guess you can't do this with thicker paper, right? TFS!

[@bobjoe5043]

love it its great. for you dumb people who say your origami nerds or whatever and you dont get it, its your own fault. the instructions are very clear.

[@Radjehuty]

I've been lookin at this model for a while now...better give it a shot. Though I don't think I understand the point of the fold you made at 5:00, it seems that's what causes the flap to not fit in the pocket very well. Oh well, thanks for the video :)

[@DukeCherokee66]

like the lines showing the creases/folds...also, better to see them on plain paper than printed paper. Thanx!

[@chatotlover]

thanks man ^^ Really nice and clear. I really liked your style of explaining stuff =) Does it also have a lit?

[@Shrimpy1020]

That was truly amazing!!! Cannot wait to try it :D

[@fetchbunny]

I love this box, I found the lid, but without your awesome video help, I can't seem to make it. Would you post on how to make the lid? ^.^

[@abbielayla]

Wow. beautiful. congratulations.

[@antonyquach0672]

omg it is hard took me 2 hours to fold it. thanks nice work

[@Ktayr]

I HOPE I can do this... Looks hard! but i'm gonna give it a shot! =D

[@MaxMerrier]

How did you figure them out?!?! wow that's genius... Thanks for sharing...

[@Funkndork]

the first corner fold (the top left) goes to some seemingly random point (i thing that's what soyojos meant). That isn't from a fold! it seems the top of that partial crease line would extend to about 1/4 fold?

[@mikuluvsmochi1]

My snowball looks amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_^

[@teefrmdabay]

they look rea..y cool...and fist comment, rating , and view...yay

[@suryakumar9675]

[@kritties]

[@chikitooo.]

[@705roxy]

[@ImFallingInToDestiny]

Woah, amazing! How to you make it again?

[@thanhvan231]

Can u use origami paper instead of that paper?

[@lanmind1024]

How do you find the point at 0:54? The crease pattern is not available.

[@MrTipptiger]

Thank you for this nice tutorial, but could you please make this tutorial without the pre-made lines, this would be very helpful.

[@lialeuschner3478]

Is the paper a quadrat?

[@twoper85]

wow nice very creative

[@theHenrik]

where the hell do you get the point in step five of your sheet from? :O

[@XzahidahX]

is it possible for you to make a lid with this?

[@BellFlute]

how I'll know where the points should be in my paper?

[@dinuflorian.]

hiii cool im roxana anamica and ii i love origami ever do!

[@Timeless14]

where did that point come from at :54???

[@MegaGamingxpert]

NICE ORIGAMI I WILL SUBCRIBE

[@darkangel78917]

i got lost on the first step....how do you make it!!!!!its too hard but very cool

[@djtanguy]

COOL Y'a juste à l'assemblage, quelques petites pointes de pâte à fixe, parce que je suis un petit joueur ^^ Formidable, j'ai enfin réussi à plier un truc qui ressemble àquelque chose :-D

[@reniveizi]

i liked that!

[@JUV003]

How do u gift something in it if its open?

[@Booshibonton]

Great for Hanukah! :D

[@Mendozino6969]

Wow ! 111 people cant do this! THUMS UP IF U AGREE!

[@arcsat85]

what are the dimensions of paper to be used for this?

[@shallowstorm211]

HAPPY NEW YEAR

[@viResPonJa]

pufff it took me some time to join together the modules but i did it. Thanks for the tutorial but i agree with everybody else, that's a little confusing.. i did it because i took the help of maths.. but to begin with u should explain where the first point is located, to make the diagonal possible. Nevertheless thanks!

[@NuLLm3riDiaN]

Big talking about other videos with missing parts, mr. barbabellaatje... But where is the instruction for the lid of the box? :-p

[@ohsweetmystery]

@lanmind1024 Start the first end of the fold right at the left edge of the paper where the second fold begins and then position the top corner of the paper so it comes down right on top of the line of the first fold. Crease. Or use a compass and center it at the left edge of the second horizontal fold, draw an arc starting from the top of the page and where it intersects the first fold is the point you want for the corner to meet.

[@sarahkayekaye]

cn i buy origami paper at wal-mart?

[@Manuelawantsth]

what are the dimensions of paper?

[@jamowa]

The glynn origami. co.uk /Starbox1 link does not work. Keeps sending you to a Scrapbooking Supplies page. )-X

[@MrIbrahimk]

you make make another one but a little bit smaller papper so they can put together, then it will be a box that you can open =)

[@xXJessicaSongXx]

YES!!!! I MADE A SNOWBALL BOX :D

[@arjun1696]

like your origami skils

[@hannahkeen8433]

i was like "I don't get a word of this i don't get it" so I just left it and made my own one from newspaper lol

[@ohsweetmystery]

@lanmind1024 Start the first end of the fold right at the left edge of the paper where the second fold begins and then position the top corner of the paper so it comes down right on top of the line of the first fold. Crease.

[@MrKlarsichtfolie]

how should we know where those points are?!

[@JaredDev]

:) cool, very cool. Now I know why it's 80 g/ m2.

[@sandykoong]

I dont get it. The lines on the paper makes it so confusing.

[@jamesyuan97]

nice, nice, very nice.

[@milad0823]

i am a begginer and i DID IT, because i can the tactics

[@JohannWendt]

I like how its called a "christmas" star box, when it resembles the Star of David. Does anybody else think thats ironic?

[@Ink-Eyes88]

Perfect. Im guving this as a present box for a jewish friend

[@rocker9904]

6:43 was like a creepy "paper peepers" episode, where the two pieces of paper are gettin it on... which one?? all of them :)

[@AmiezraBee]

ur tutorial is so confusing.....with all that pre-made lines n creases.. i just cant follow. but ur origami star box is so pretty.

[@hatsunehatsunemikumikumiku]

hello

[@madpiratesarah]

I made a pretty awesome snowball..not that i'm showing off or anything! lol

[@PeytonMont]

@tomaatje1 Mom, why are you watching my videos and correcting the others!?!? I'm just kidding, you have a great point with that guy up there.... :D

[@ema6ptk]

i made it too, but it doesn't look exactly like the first ones. and the modules are not locked :D.

[@sLiready]

pasmado na si kuya oh .... ^_ __^V

[@PresentingRachelS]

@damien1989ster traditionally glue, tape and scissors are not used in origami no.

[@pakkirimms9879]

one side u fold it . but the other side no instructions how to fold. u have pre-folded paper. pl give us clear instructions.

[@sarahparker7395]

I think paper size is 6"x6" inches squares I will try to make that star box

[@teefrmdabay]

thank you

[@marleighmae3156]

was it easy?...i want to do it but it looks hard!!

[@chikitooo.]

@Deustchkid i use 16x16

[@lotuspu3]

oh wow, maybe I can use this as a shuriken

[@PeytonMont]

The Pros. and Cons. about this video.... Pros. -The box was very cool looking and fun! Cons. -You should have had WAY better music! -You should have said at the beginning all the materials you needed instead of towards the middle. -You said it was a BOX not a TOP.... there's a difference! -You should talk more, sometimes your instructions were confusing. That's all I gotta say about that.

[@rachelchu7453]

please add a lot more detail because I don't understand what you are doing to show this thing

[@PeytonMont]

@xia6849 your very welcome.... Xp

[@fanaticayo]

y de doinde salió ese primer punto hacia donde doblas la primera punta???

[@j98c]

this is very easy

[@angelridhu149]

i like it

[@echoesact3368]

It'll take me a week just to do one corner!

[@rhyoul]

@Chiavuiful its easy :/ i think barbabelaatje is the best teacher :D

[@Kaksdelatvsecom]

I do it more beautiful.

[@shocklight78]

@Almaraz901 happy birthday!~!~!~!~!~! have fun [=

[@1023mitchell]

this is so hard but you have talent but too hard for me.haha

[@citrusz1245]

That's is a dodecagon. I'm just too much of a nerd :P

[@johnputtick7]

Cool goos video

[@violeta3479]

de donde hiciste esos puntos pues ya el papel esta marcado y no mostraste como ni porque

[@looney1023]

great! but music is kinda annoying i might give it a try. 5/5

[@fintonsawesomestuff]

yes but it works best with a bit heavier paper :)

[@LoveMagicAngel]

@bubblesforCK my opinion is that his order of explaining this.. is just wrong.. maybe u can find ur Points by if you got your paper in 3 parts u turn it and fold it in the middle then fold the other half in 3 parts again then u can find ur point because on the first line is where the point is of folding all.. if you understand what i mean (1:10) my english is bad -.-;

[@soyojos]

I think you try... but you don't give enough information about the folds and the origin of the points that you use. I think the model is not clear.....

[@MyWilliam2020]

A pesar del idioma, me salió, pero esa es la caja, me imagino que la tapa la haré igual o unos milimetros más grande para que cierre.

[@MarlineaQ]

The music sounds like Sims-music, but on Sims they CHANGE songs, they don't play the same song OVER and OVER again -.- Great tutorial though ;P
