Notes:
➥To determine the size of the paper lay box down on paper in orientation of your choosing. Width of paper (Timestamp: 0:08 ) will be 3 box widths + 4 box heights. Height of paper (Timestamp: 0:05), will be 1 box length + 2 box heights
➥Initial pleats on underside of paper (Timestamp: 0:20): I chose to make 5, 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. Traditionally odd numbers are for happy occasions, even numbers for occasions that call for sympathy.
➥Fan pleats on face of paper (Timestamp: 0:35 ): Choose one point on lower quarter of paper. Fold each pleat so they all meet at that same point on one side.
➥Orient pleats to the front of the box in a way that is pleasing to you. It is crucial, however, that the upper corner of the box is visible beyond the fanned wrapping (Timestamp: 1:34)!
