Origami with "dispose" paper

There are many advertised papers come together with the newspapers.
My mom often put all into the recycle box prepare to send to the collect recycled products lorry.
In the last semester break I learn something which can help us to manage our small stuffs with these "disposal" papers.

Actually...is not a boat!
 1. You can fold the A4 paper or any size of the paper into three.














2. Then on the 1st page on your left, and the last page on you right, fold another half(refer to pic above and below).
The shape will be look like this.















3. Open up the 1st page/ last page that you folded into half.

















4. Fold up the 4 sides of the paper just like the picture below.




















Do the same step for the 1st page/ last page too.


















You will have the pattern like this after you complete the step in front.
Then open up the middle part.


















It will look like a boat but actually it is a.....


















BOX
















The box can be used to put small things in an organized way.
Or normally i use to put my hair accessories or electric accessories such as charger or headphones.
My mom use it to put chicken bone or fish bone during dinner....
I fold it without opening it just like in the photo, whenever I want to use it, I just open it in the middle part
and I can fully utilized it!
