A five-pointed star box can actually be folded using only a piece of paper. This time I will explain to you how to fold a five-pointed star box. You may have seen many five-pointed star boxes. My method of folding the star box is relatively simple and only requires a piece of paper. Many steps involve repeating an operation five times, so let’s do it together.
Materials and tools required for DIY: a square piece of paper.
DIY detailed step-by-step illustration:
Take a square piece of paper, fold the paper in half, fold the right side of the paper downward first, then fold the lower side upward. After folding, open it and find the crease.
Fold the supporting point in the lower left corner to the right and toward the center. After folding, fold the left paper in half toward the left edge. Then fold the right paper in half toward the right edge of the left paper.
Turn over the right part, press the paper tightly, and cut the entire paper along the edge of the top layer of paper (in the picture).
After opening, it is a regular pentagon, and then deepen each corner along the crease (dotted line in the picture)crease, and the straight line where the crease is located is deepened.

Fold in the parts between the two corners, do the same for the five parts, then unfold and flatten a certain triangle part, and fold the lower left triangle part in half towards the middle.

Fold the upper triangle to the upper left as shown in the picture, and operate the five parts as shown in the picture. As shown in the picture after folding.
Press the paper flat again, and fold the right part toward the center line. After folding, repeat the above operation for the five parts to form a five-layered quadrilateral.

Fold the top part upward and flatten it, repeat the five parts, and then fold the top corner part downward to make a crease. Stand up and spread out the image from the middle part.

Pull the top corner apart as shown. The space in the middle can be used to store things. It would be more beautiful if folded with two-color paper.
