I hadn’t come across any 5-sided modular boxes until recently. For the week on boxes, I had wanted to work on triangular, square and pentagonal boxes. And while searching for them, the first pentagonal box I came across was Dennis Walker’s Cherry Blossom Box.
A very pretty box to fold, it ends up with a star shape in the top and 5 petals on top of the star. It folds best with stiffer paper. I had this beautiful gift wrapper paper which worked out very well.
