| Comments: | The boxes in this set ares a bit challenging because of the very small pleat folds required to make the fan-shaped structures on the lids.
Note that these fans are NOT decorations created separately from the lid and then attached to it. Instead, they are integral to its structure.
The lid is assembled from six units. Each fan is created as part of the folding process for each unit.
I have matched these lids with bases from a different design source than the lids. To get a good fit between lid and base, I had to experiment with the sheet size for the base units.
Some of the paper used here was a gift from my friend Marcianna. |
