Learn how to make a pentagonal five sided tall origami pot, this origami box is great for pencils, makeup brushes, you can make a matching lid.
You don’t see many five sided origami boxes, the others are usually modular or use the twisting method, this one is more like a masu box, with each side of the box overlapping the next.
This origami pot starts off with a pentagon, which is shown at the beginning, if you have a preferred method of making a pentagon, you can start at 2:14 in the video.

You will need:
