Lots of fun. I made a two inch square box using 6 inch origami paper. It turned out very nice. Next time I’ll definitely try using gift wrap.

I cannot wait to go buy some gift wrap paper to have a go as it looks so much better than wrapping gifts, this is the way to go and thank you for the great demonstration.
