en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 apr 2018
**Named a "Best Craft Book" by Book Riot**

With this origami folding book, learn how to create original gift boxes that are as beautiful as the treasures they hold!

Considered the most famous living origami master, Tomoko Fuse is known for her expertise in modular origami and box-folding. The more than 30 origami projects in this book range from beginner to more advanced, and ensure you'll always have a special way to give a gift. The simple flat box, or tato, is an excellent introduction to the art of origami for beginners and allows readers to "start small," then build to more intricate pieces like the Hexagonal Box and Octagonal Flower Box (Mukuge).

Handmade paper boxes are an expression of origami crafts at their very best. Experiment with different thicknesses, textures, and origami paper designs for a true one-of-a-kind presentation. The projects are divided into 3 sections: Simple Boxes from Square Sheets, Modular Boxes from Multiple Square Sheets and Modular Boxes from Rectangular Sheets.

Step-by-step instructions and diagrams guide you from start to finish as you create:
  • Simple flat boxes—rectangular, triangular, hexagonal and more
  • Pyramid-shaped boxes and different ways of finishing them off
  • Modular box tops that look amazing
  • Window-topped boxes for nesting a special gift
  • Box tops with flourishes from flat to spiraled
  • Easy liners for boxes of all shapes and sizes
  • And a lot more
Origami box folding is a relaxing and satisfying craft for all levels of expertise and—with a little practice and this easy origami book—gift-giving will never be the same.

Recenzii

"Fuse, author of several books on origami, is considered a master of the art. (…) After a guide that shows the origami symbols and basic folds, the more than three-dozen projects are divided into three categories: simple boxes made using square sheets, modular boxes made using multiple square sheets, and modular boxes made using rectangular sheets. Even the most basic of the projects is impressive, and as Fuse points out, simpler designs are perfectly suited to show off specialty printed paper. The instructions are presented in a numbered sequence of visual symbols with occasional text accompanying, and each project lists the standard-size sheet for it. A terrific guide to learning or practicing origami." -- Booklist

"Critique: Simply stated, Tomoko Fuse's Origami Boxes is an ideal introduction into the Japanese art form and craft of making origami boxes. Profusely illustrated and thoroughly 'user friendly' in organization and presentation, Tomoko Fuse's Origami Boxes is very highly recommended for personal and academic library do-it-yourself craft collections. (…) gift-giving will never be the same." -- Midwest Book Review

"Tuttle has published an amazing lineup of origami books and kits but they've outdone even themselves with this one…Beautifully designed, the instructions include clearly-understandable visual diagrams for each project." --Retailing Insight
