Origami Box with Cover Step 4: Now this is the step that differs from the origami box. Instead of folding both the top and bottom edges to meet at the center, we'll fold the bottom and top edges to almost the center, approximately 1/8" or 2-3mm from the center. Crease well and unfold.

This will make the cover slightly larger than the base.
