This StarPuff Box was created by Ilan Garibi. It is an example of a

crease-and-collapse design. If you have never made an origami
via crease and collapse, then this is a good day for you to try!

BUTTERFLIES

An interesting feature of this model is that it starts with a

hexagon instead of a square sheet if paper. Instructions to make a
hexagon from a rectangle or from a square are provided; or you
can print one out from here. The creasing of the hexagon paper is

straightforward but the collapsing part may be tricky to some.
