Nadina ，

Cute boxes， I only made one， but the instructions were simple and easy to follow。 I like that there are tips about their symbols at the beginning。 They also show color difference for front and back of paper。

An excellent resource for those of us who love boxes！

The directions take a little bit of figuring out， and sometimes the steps seem to skip parts。 I found the illustrations to be more helpful than the directions。 The harder the box， the fewer directions， which seems ridiculous to me， but I'm also kind of a dunce at paper-folding。 I have made many masu boxes with the directions from this book。 The directions take a little bit of figuring out， and sometimes the steps seem to skip parts。 I found the illustrations to be more helpful than the directions。 The harder the box， the fewer directions， which seems ridiculous to me， but I'm also kind of a dunce at paper-folding。 I have made many masu boxes with the directions from this book。 。。。more

First， and most important （to me at least）:Most of these are NOT in Fabulous Origami Boxes or Joyful Origami Boxes: A Basic Book for Beginners。 A few simple things are repeated， like square box bases。 One of the triangle methods is in Joyful。I can't compare to Quick And Easy Origami Boxes， as I gave it away。 It was primarily simple designs （hence why I didn't need to keep it）， so I expect overlap with this volume is limited。Some of the methods are close， like for hexagons。 There are also variant First， and most important （to me at least）:Most of these are NOT in Fabulous Origami Boxes or Joyful Origami Boxes: A Basic Book for Beginners。 A few simple things are repeated， like square box bases。 One of the triangle methods is in Joyful。I can't compare to Quick And Easy Origami Boxes， as I gave it away。 It was primarily simple designs （hence why I didn't need to keep it）， so I expect overlap with this volume is limited。Some of the methods are close， like for hexagons。 There are also variants of some of the earlier square designs。 I can't be completely sure of the extent of some differences without folding them consecutively。Second:The new styles are nice。 The cover shows several of the dome lid patterns， which are fabulous。 They are also single sheet patterns and end up quite small and a bit flimsy， so plan accordingly。 There are flowery square boxes using a symmetric module I'm unfamiliar with， though it's quite simple and may just be something I've missed until now。There are also rectangular sheet patterns for oblong hexagons which I like the look of， though I've not folded any yet。 There are NO heptagons。Third:All the modular styles are closer to Fabulous Origami Boxes than to Joyful。 This means that the hexagon and octagon styles are going to be a bit flimsy （the single sheet squares are naturally flimsy as well）。This is a nice supplement to Fabulous， but is less in depth overall to both of the earlier books。 Joyful is still the best book for non-square designs， and the square boxes in Fabulous are more adaptable。 I would go for Fabulous Origami Boxes over this as a starting point。I still really like it and plan to add it to my collection， because boxes are one of my favorite things to fold。 。。。more
