I find it fascinating that there are so many models and folding techniques I have yet to try. The “Magic Rose Cube” is a case in point – I am amazed I have never folded it:
Such a beautiful little modular, 3 pieces the flower, 3 slightly different pieces the leaves, slots together into a cube easily, unfurls beautifully.
I have some beautiful hand made paper, so set about making a rose cube for my valentine, then decided it should be housed in something.
David Brill’s “Ring Box” makes the perfect container, so I used some crisp cream ribbed paper for the box – perfect.
I know valentine’s day is a commercial gimmick, but do you really need a reason to spoil your special friend?
I love this beautiful Orgami gift box & Rose. I would like to get the pattern & try making it my self.
