After the German convention, at which I have given a workshop of the modular heart, I got a picture by Brigitte Wehrle with her folding. And she extended it with a very interesting idea. The other end of the module can be formed to a box.
I try it out and here is my first result. It is very easy. Just an opening of the inside wings of the cupboard base. There are two ways. It is enough to open just one side, but I found it better to open both sides. Then I have equal layers. To lock the box just turn some paper of the end to the inside. It is enough to do it once, but I found it better to do it twice.
And it is possible to change the direction of the box walls. The heart can be outside, as here for the lid, or inside, which I found better for the base.
The height of the box can chosen with the length of the paper stripe. The box width is the half of the paper width.

The "boxing" is possible for every of the polygon crosses. So, more will come.

This box has just one layer of paper in most places so it uses paper effectively, allowing you to make a large box with given sheet size. In contrast to Common Box, outside is completely smooth, and this box is also much stronger than Common Box. The downside is that the lock of the corners is placed inside rather than outside which takes away some space and may make placing objects inside the box difficult. However, I designed this box with the purpose of using it as a lower part of two-part box sets — to be matched to decorated box lids, and this role it fulfills quite well.
It’s a simple design so I wouldn't be surprised if someone had come up with it before.
It must have been a special birthday for Kings Lynn-based rail tour promoter Nigel Dobbing as West Coast Railways, the train operating company which operates his charter trains, provided a a rake of coaches including some heritage vehicles for a special private charter to celebrate the event. Of note was the use of the 'Queen of Scots' observation car positioned at the rear of the train, and the use of WCRC's recently restored 'Jubilee' No. 45699 'Galatea' to haul the train. On a grey 20th May 2013 the ensemble is seen passing Whittlesea signal box heading back from Kings Lynn to Carnforth with the empty stock off the previous days charter.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
Hexagonal box... Purple top folded from an 8.5 inch wide hexagon gridded in 16ths... Yellow bottom folded from an 8.5 inch square divided in 7ths... It's amazing how it works out that 1/8 * 2 / root(3) is slightly larger than 1/7, thus making the top fit the bottom snugly...
The overlap section between the top and bottom is actually an anti-prism, which means the lid actually holds quite well, and does not fall off even if turned upside-down and shaken with objects inside...
The top is a result of some of the playing around I did on the yellow sheet with the offset double-pleats... It didn't look too good tessellated, but I realized the sides could be wrapped down and turned into a box-top...

The L&SWR Type 1 box at Pinhoe on the outskirts of Exeter opened c.1875. It contained an 18 lever Stevens & Sons Tappet frame and controlled the single to double line connection from here to Exeter Central, after the former L&SWR West of England main line was singled from here to Honiton in 1967. The adjacent level crossing had been converted to barriers by the date of this photo and Pinhoe box was abolished on 15th February 1988 when the area it controlled came under the control of a panel installed in Exmouth Junction box.
Paper: Octagon, Hexagon, Pentagon cutted from Wrapping Paper, 10 cm Square

I found the diagram for the triangle box in my last year's Origami Calender. After folding it, it was obvious that this works for any polygon. So I made some more. Most fun was the square box: Starting with a pentagon, just to end up with something square was kind of weird....

Arad means Bronze in Hebrew, and this is his chosen box, number one.
Its quiet, yet distinctive. Its very simple to fold, and beside the grid (4x4) only 4 crease lines are added.
the search is over, we have a winner!

She took the key, slid it into the lock and turned it. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and slowly lifted the lid of the box. She opened her eyes and looked into the box, expecting to see fine silks, gowns or gold bracelets and necklaces or even piles of gold coins.
But there was no gleam of gold or treasure. There were no shining bracelets and not one beautiful dress! The look of excitement on her face quickly turned to one of disappointment and then horror. For Zeus had packed the box full of all the terrible evils he could think of. Out of the box poured disease and poverty. Out came misery, out came death, out came sadness - all shaped like tiny buzzing moths.
So it's a bummer that you can't see my greek inspired makeup and all here. It's pretty cool~
But anyway I'm not sure if I like the way this came out or not. I'm striving to the level of Luminous Lu's photography and editing skills and when I see a picture in my head and it's her style and then I'm not as good as her it's depressing.
But I still like this I guess.
I'm lonely.
I get lonely too often.

Recently I saw the 6 Point Logarithmic Stacked Star by Georigami and was inspired to fold this box from one hexagonal Tant paper for the lid and one for the bottom.
This post box in Plumpton is rather hidden by foliage, it could do with a new coat of paint I think :) I usually photograph the whole box but decided on a close up for a change. The post boxes always show the Latin initials of the monarch reigning when the post box was installed - so 'E11R' & the crown stands for Elizabeth Regina 11 (Elizabeth 2nd - our reigning Queen).
Red pillar boxes are one of Britain's best-loved sights. But did you know they were once green?
The Post Office first installed roadside posting boxes in the Channel Islands in 1852.
After this trial run proved successful, pillar boxes appeared all over the country.
The boxes were tall and cast iron, and took their name from the pillar shape. Initially, most were painted green and the mail slot could be vertical or horizontal.
In the countryside, some people thought green pillar boxes were dreary and hard to see, so in 1874 red became the preferred colour.
