Origami Box Divider
Learn how to make a useful origami divider to fit a regular origami masu box. Designed by Paolo Bascetta, this origami box divider is the perfect solution to keep items separated in your gift box.
Many people think this model is traditional, however it was designed by Paolo Bascetta in about 1980.
This box divider is pretty simple to make. Start with the same sized paper you used for the masu box. If your paper was super thick, you may want to use slightly smaller paper.
