Hello and welcome to our Easy Origami Box video
This box is a variation on the traditional
box or masu. You'll start with a piece of
origami paper with the color side down.
The first step is to make
a valley fold along the diagonal as we're showing here.
Make sure to crease the edges well.
So unfold the paper, make another valley fold
along the other diagonal, and again crease well.
Now unfold the paper and take each of the four
corners and fold them towards the center.
So here's the first corner
and now
the second
here's the third
and finally the fourth corner.
This piece actually has a name,
it's an origami base known as the
Blintz base, B-L-I-N-T-Z.
Now unfold the paper and you'll take each of the four corners
and fold them to the first crease line as shown here.
Then once you've done that, fold over each of the edges
at that first crease line.
Now flip the paper over
Now fold the top edge down to the center line
and then the bottom edge
to the center.
Now unfold the last two folds, 
and we're going to fold over the left and right edges to the center. 
So left edge first
and now the right edge.
Next tape the top flap
and fold it over to the left.
You're going to fold
over the two corners on the right side as shown here.
And then take that flap
and fold it back over to the right.
And fold the left flap over as well.
And we'll repeat that diagonal fold with the two corners here
Next you're going to fold 
only the top flap over to the left.
And now the fun part, we just have to unfold the box.  
So get your fingers inside
you'll see it unfolds into a box.
Straighten out the sides and crease the
corners.
Just like that.
One difference you'll notice, here's a
traditional Masu box
the bottom of the easy origami box is white.
There you have it
Your Easy Origami Box. Enjoy!
