This is the most fun I've had doing origami. I love the sink that results in a pull in later. What a cool, cool model. I could only get 5 layers before my paper became so weak it tore while pulling out lol
Hi Sara-What a terrific video and a beautiful take on the Hydrangea Box with theover-hanging lid. I did 3 at one time using 6 different colors. Your tutorials just keep getting better and better.
I'm really glad that you like this one, too! And thanks so much for your kind words, they mean a lot. I do put much effort into my videos, so getting such positive feedback really feels good.
Thank you for this instructional video! At first I watched it without audio as per my habit, and got stuck at the part about inverting the pyramids, as some parts didn’t seem to have flaps to grab to pull. Then I saw your comment about referring to your basic hydrangea video, which really helped me get past that impasse. And then I revisited this video with audio, and realised how crucial your spoken instructions are 😅 Managed to fold it thereafter and rather enjoyed the process - a friend who was watching me follow your instructions, said she found it therapeutic to watch the folding process. Appreciate your video very much 😊🙏🏼
Just a tip: if you still want to do it without audio (I fold with music on), you can turn on Closed Captions! Most Happy Folding videos have custom closed captions, so they're very accurate.
What an excellent tutorial! I love the design, and I had an especially fun time following along. I'm a little short on colored paper so mine is only white on white, though!
Okay, so I gave it another try and somewhat got a result that is kind of decent. I only manage 4 layers (I think, if I count correctly), though. The paper is already, mhh ... it feels somehow soft. It's hard to work along existing creases that way and I am afraid to ruin what I managed to do so far. So I guess I'll stop at this 4th layer. Pretty difficult stuff for a beginner. Next time I'll try to approach the 5th layer, too.
This is a great tutorial on turning the hydrangea into a box. Over the past few years, I have folded many hydrangeas. Each time is a little bit more precise. But, no matter what Origami paper I use, by the time I’m on layer 4, the points and edges of the paper has become soft and fuzzy. Or a hole opens up on the tips or center of the open sink after flattening. I usually can’t go past 5 layers- and the 5th layer looks like a shapeless lump. My hands are dry so I know I’m not introducing moisture to the paper. Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Maybe too much pressure when I make some of the creases? Thanks for any constructive feedback! This tends to happen on other projects too...any projects with multiple layered folds and tesselations. Tant paper seems to be the worst!
It might simply be the paper you are using. There is definitely a lot of stress on the points. Working carefully while adding the layers is crucial, but depending on the type of paper you are using you can only add that many layers. This is what 5 layers look like when I fold the model from 6 in / 15 cm kami: www.happyfolding.com/gallery-fujimoto-hydrangea-yellow_red_dreamy_paper
The same thing happens to me.Trying to fold past 5 layers results in a mess and the shaping is difficult because the resulting triangle is so little that you can not get a precise fold. I recently folded it with a piece of tissue foil and I didn't get as much wear as with other papers but tissue foil is expensive to practice on and it does get bulky the more you fold. I think it is just repeated practice. Sara has been folding for so many years and there are things that she does intrinsically that we don't notice. The more I fold the better I get at finding ways to make it look better. I also recently stopped really creasing and more pushing down the folds. I found when I creased back and forth I was getting much more worked looking paper than if I just pushed it down. The use of a bone folder instead of my fingers has helped a little also. Good luck with your folding and hopefully by this time you have been able to perfect your hydrangea's. I am still really knew to folding and can use all the help I can get, LOL!!
I don't get the part in 7:30. There's nothing I could grab. I mean, there is paper where it's supposed to be, but ... it just isn't, uh ... "grabbable" I guess. I'm using two colored 15x15cm origami paper.
@@orianadunn4478 Oh, wow ... that's quite some time ago. I didn't give it another try, yet. I found the 4 layer design looked quite impressive already. I think you just have to go for it and test the limit of your paper. Sometimes this stuff looks super fragile but if you push a bit harder you find that it isn't quite as bad. That's something I noticed in several videos. I am too hesitant and too afraid to just push/pull/whatever just a bit harder. And if the paper tears apart you just have to start over and learn something from it. Even though it drives me bananas. xD
Hi, I had this issue too, but I saw another comment encouraging to check out her video on folding the hydrangea flower itself which gives more detailed steps, and worked out that where there was no flap to grab, it was because the folds on the reverse side (under the square) were not where they were meant to be, and needed a bit of tweaking. Hard to explain in words, but I definitely recommend checking out her hydrangea flower video as I found it helped me get past my impasse. Hope this helps you too!
Wonderful tutorial, but I lost you around 8:45-8:56 mins and would have loved it that had been as details as your tuts generally are. Thankyou anyways :)
Sara has several other hydrangea tutorials that show the process in a closer view. The basic hydrangea is the same when you fold it from the outside in, as opposed to the middle out. In this video Sara is folding from the outside in and her other tutorials show this very clearly. You can also slow the video way down to 1/4 time and that helps to see all the steps. Once you get the hang of this it becomes rather addicting .Sara also has a tutorial showing the low density, intermediate density and high density hydrangea models and that video has a link and a picture of the crease pattern. I stopped the video on the crease pattern and have now folded all three densities, (although they are a long way from perfect!!). I am still perfecting my accuracy but have learned to fold this from watching Sara's tutorials and I am a beginning origami folder. Hydrangea's definitely take patience and also help me to increase my patience. Hope some of this helps. It is well worth folding as it looks so complex and once mastered, is relatively easy. Sara is a superb teacher. Deborah
Loved it. Thanks can I use it to give food gifts to my friends? I need to know this .don't want to violate any laws.funny laws being made in the new brave world. Never heard in younger days.
happyfolding.com - enjoy origami online Eu faço origami intermediário. Não tenho dificuldade em fazer os movimentos. A dificuldade que falei foi sobre as várias acelerações do vídeo que, em muitos momentos, impede de acompanhar qual dobradura foi executada. Só isso. 👍🏻
I'm sorry to hear the video is too fast for you. Have you already folded the basic hydrangea? I believe if you know that model already, this video should be fine. As I already have a detailed tutorial on the basic hydrangea, I decided to only quickly show how to fold it here - as mentioned in the video. :) Just in case, here's the tutorial for the basic hydrangea: th-cam.com/video/zu5F0Hmd3ZA/w-d-xo.html
Which paper do you mean? In the video I use kami, which is the type of paper usually sold as "origami paper". I've listed a bunch of origami shops on happyfolding.com/shops - but you can even get it on Amazon.
Yes, it's a more advanced model. If it's a bit too challenging right now, try folding some easier models to hone your skills and then come back to this one. This is what I've done many times in the past, and it's always been so rewarding to see how I progressed, finally managing to master the complex folds that were too difficult for me before.

beautiful box!
Why are you here?
Thanks for showing your support!
What are you doing here???
whoa... you watch other origami??
Hi dude! I’ve wondered why you don’t collaborate with many others.
I am pleased to see someone else show making folds by folding edge to folded edge as it has been easier for me than folding edge to unfolded prefolds.
I definitely prefer folding that way.
This is so amazing!! It took me three hours but I finally made it! Thank you!
Congrats!
This is the most fun I've had doing origami. I love the sink that results in a pull in later. What a cool, cool model. I could only get 5 layers before my paper became so weak it tore while pulling out lol

I'm sure the box looks stunning in white, too. Thanks for folding along and letting me know how it went!
One of best (if not the best) origami i ever made!
Your Origami TH-cam channel is my favorite!! Thank you!
I'm really glad to hear that!
It looks too difficult the way you explained. You just made it really easy
I'm glad to hear that I helped make the model easier to fold!
Hemant Singh good
Absolutely beautiful! made it and it came out really well....thank you for the amazing tutorial! :)
Congrats on folding the model. It's definitely a more challenging one, but in my opinion well worth the effort. :)
Wow. Incredible. Great tutorial.
so beautiful box ! I give it to my friend 's birthday and she love it Thank you
What a beautiful, thoughtful present!
As always Sara, excellent tutorial, I'm looking forward to folding this :)
Let me know how it went once you get to it. :)
amazing design!!! i love the way mine turned out!!!! :)
Congrats on your fold!
Beautiful box! Thank you for the wonderful tutorial 😘
You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it!

I’ve never done anything like this and it was so easy to follow. Thank you! It’s beautiful
Happy Mother's Day, Sara! Thanks for the beautiful video as usual. :)
You're welcome. :)
Buenos dia muy bonito estos modelos de manualidades me gustan mucho
I using your vid to learn this folding design, thank you!
Glad I could help!
You made it look so easy but I'm over here crying over paper for the last 20 minutes 😭
Don't give up. It gets easier with practice.
Same I can’t get it right
And I have been trying for 2 hours
She's better at reversing folds than I am.
Bellissimooo!!! Complimentiii!!!💗
I made it with Kraft paper for the masu and I used colored copy paper for the lid! I used green copy paper so it looks like a shamrock
Time to watch some asmr for 17 Minutes lmaooo
Hope you enjoyed it!
You are very good at teaching you do ir very fast!
Thanks - I hope not too fast. :)

Did you find a solution? Im stuck at the same part and even using the most gingerly touch it threatens to rip where im supposed to be grabbing

Excellent instructors
I'm glad to hear you feel that way. :)
Can you make a tutorial on rectangular shaped hydrangea lid with box
Thak you for instrucion😁
You're welcome!
Love your videos!
I'm glad to hear that. :)
This box was such a pain in the ass to built, i went through countless existential crisis, really a beautiful and evil model
Beauty has its price. ;)
Thank You so much Sara!!
You're welcome!
Wonderful tutorial, but I lost you around 8:45-8:56 mins and would have loved it that had been as details as your tuts generally are. Thankyou anyways :)

Very nice box
Thanks!
Cool amazing
Stop speeding up you're missing really important details
I have made one 🙌🏻❤️
Congrats!
Will this work with a 6in paper?
Amazing!!!
Thanks!!
I am not getting the lid it won’t fold into the hydrangea
does this work with a square with a side length of 20 cm ?
Yes, definitely!
This video is great but please try not to speed up the video at times because I find it hard to follow along, especially since I started
Loved it. Thanks can I use it to give food gifts to my friends? I need to know this .don't want to violate any laws.funny laws being made in the new brave world. Never heard in younger days.
Of course you can use this model as a wrapper for gifts to friends. I'm sure they'll appreciate the effort you put into it!
Paper name!!!!?
Vários movimentos ficam impossíveis de acompanhar, com toda essa aceleração de vídeo que você faz. 😔
I'm sorry to hear you feel that way. Did you fold the basic hydrangea before attempting the lid? That's what I recommend.

You make it look so easy and it is not I have tried so many times I’m screaming inside

Thanks!
It would be nice if u dont add 2x speed. Its hard to catch up. :(

It's like Ryusin 3.5 scales
You're right, there's some similarity - although the scales are the same size throughout. :)
