Notes:
➥You will need 2 pieces of paper:
1) Background paper: To determine the size of the background paper, lay box down on paper in the orientation of your choosing. Height of paper (Timestamp: 0:03), will be 1 box length + 2 box heights. Width of paper (Timestamp: 0:05) will be enough to wrap around box with a little overlap.
2) Paper for Twisted Bow: Height is equivalent to the height of the background paper (Timestamp: 0:14). Width will vary depending on how many pleats you wish to fold.
➥Initial pleats on underside of paper (Timestamp: 0:15): First fold a narrow pleat along the paper’s edge. Then, fold an ODD number of folds. I chose to make 9, each about half the height of my index finger but you can make a few more or a few less to the size of your choosing as long as the total is an odd number. After the final fold, allow a little extra paper for a foldback but cut excess paper (Timestamp: 0:22).
➥Fan pleats on face of paper: First, identify the center column (Timestamp: 0:27). Starting with one side of the paper, fold down each center point to meet the center point directly below. You must NOT fold into the center column (Timestamp: 0:34)! Once you reach the center column, flip over paper over, cut out bottom portion of fan (Timestamp: 0:35), bind fan with tape (Timestamp: 0:38), and start the entire process over on the other side (Timestamp: 0:40).
