The platinum competition takes place in Johannesburg which means our pieces must be couriered. Therefore, we need to have our pieces in some sort of box so that they will be protected during transit. I wanted to make a box using origami as an origami box would not take long to make and it can be customised.
I tried two different origami boxes a square ring box and a rectangular box that both have lids included in the design. I found tutorial videos for both boxes on YouTube which was very helpful. I decided to customise the rectangular box as my piece does not fit in the square box. I reduced the size of the rectangular box and printed my pattern on the paper so it fits with my piece, but I need to work on strengthening the paper box.
