Comments:Pentagonal boxes are a little easier to make than hesagons or orctagons, although more difficult than squares.
 
Double-sided paper produces the best looking pentagons, although single-sided paper can be used effectively for some styles.
 
In the pack of paper used here, each sheet had one of six different solid colors on one side and a complementary multi-stripe pattern on the other. Working with those stripes was really fun!
