Here are the instructions to make a useful origami pill box with seven sections – one for each day, organise beads, pins, gems & more.
This origami project uses my original Pencil Box model which you can watch the tutorial for here.
The difference is the dimensions, and also the little square boxes that fit inside it.
The reason I don’t cut the paper to size of 21 x 27 is that you can use the off cut to add little squares to bottom of the sections.

Hi sweetie!
I loved your boxes!?????????? It seems so easy to do while I watched your tutorials! I’ll try it!
I live in Brazil and my 1st grandson will born in few days?
I was thinking to help my daughter organizing “dudu’s “ little clothes inside origames boxes in the drawers❣️
You inspire me a lot!
?Do you think is possible to “build” some rectangular origames boxes?
?how can I calculate the measures?
?I’ll use a high gramature paper, like 250g . Do you think is enough?
Help me ?? Please!

Hi, I’m glad you like it 🙂 For boxes for drawers, I would make a lot of long origami boxes, the ones on my photo tutorial page called ‘rectangular boxes – deep’, they would be good. As for getting the right size, that will be tricky but they should all fit together nicely no matter what size the drawers are. 🙂
I can’t wait to try this! Before I watched the video and and during the folding of the rectangle box, I thought it would be too complicated, but the box seems to come together so nicely! Great tutorial & I think I can do this! I will post if I make it- I just purchased a pack a double sided origami but have to figure out what paper to use for the rectangle box.

What would you say is the hardest Origami Model on your site, Chrissy?
I would say the flip top box.. https://www.paperkawaii.com/2015/09/02/origami-flip-top-box-instructions/ 😀
