El arte de construir con papel: cajas de Origami para regalos y baratijas

Beautiful boxes, Mariajose! Love your personal touch by using painted watercolour paper! How did you find folding watercolour paper and have you tried folding anything slightly lighter? Might be something you could explore in future for smaller boxes, although bigger boxes should work well in heavy paper too! Thanks a lot for taking this class, posting your project and leaving a review! And thanks so much for your kind words and sharing your personal experience! &lt;3 —Evgeniya

Hello, Evgeniya! I'm so happy you like the hand-painted touch on the papers 😊 The watercolour paper I used wasn’t very thick, so it was quite manageable - especially since I remembered your tip about keeping it just firm enough for the boxes to stay upright. I’ll try it with thinner paper too, perhaps for smaller boxes. I think i will need to varnish the painted box to have a little *glow* too but i'm just factoring in that it might get too stiff. Will explore this.. :D  This project sparked creativity in me, so thank you so much for sharing this class, along with all your interesting and substantial courses. All the best to you - be well. 💗

Varnishing the finished box is such a good idea! You could also consider glowing all the flaps and sides to make sure it stays intact and lasts a while. Thanks so much for your kind words!&lt;3 Hope you'll explore some of our other papercraft or maybe even printmaking classes to explore more fun techniques. —Evgeniya

Indeed I will do exactly that - i already browsed through both papercraft and printmaking classes and am excited to try. Thank you, Evgeniya, for your encouraging words and advise - it really means a lot. - Mariajose

I made some watercolour painted paper with stripes and blossoms that evoke the joys of summer for this bespoke origami box. Complements any gift that shows you care. I love it! Thank you, Jenya from Evgeniya &amp; Dominic Righini-Brand for this class❣️

Layered with inner boxes for added interest makes a gift even more special. I chose a complementary palette for the same loose handpainted style.

Boxes are lined inside using the same paper for a polished look. I'm so happy to learn how to make these simple origami boxes for self epression, creativity and now i have a way to prepare gifts too. I'm excited to make more. Thank you, Jenya! Thank you, Skillshare! 💓
