I had so much fun making these Origami Nesting Boxes. Once you know how to fold them, you can make them fairly quickly. For a tutorial, please see my Origami Easter Basket Tutorial. Just skip the part with the handle and instead punch Crop-a-dile holes near each corner and add matching ribbon ties. I left these boxes plain, but you could embellish them to your heart’s content.
One thing I really like about these boxes is that they have a lot of character. They look like a little basket you would find at a farmer’s market. Two of the sides have rims and the others have an interesting angle fold. Look closely at my photos and you will see what makes these little boxes so special.
