Origami Chinese Thread Book / Zhen Xian Bao

This is Chinese Thread Box or Zhen Xian Bao, I made for my friend's Birthday.  This is made entirely by folding paper, no glue or tape and there are 31 boxes.  I had hoped to put some skeins of DMC in the boxes but it made them too bulky to close so I popped in stickers and charms instead.


The whole box:


There are 16 boxes this size:


8 boxes this size:


4 of this size:


2 in this format:


And one large one which forms the base of the piece:


This is the tutorial I followed to make it:



My paper was a little thicker than they used, so I didn't make the fancy flower shapes on the top 16 boxes!
