As I was browsing You Tube one day, looking for my next project idea, I came across an unboxing of a stationery Bento box. That was quite impressive. Looking to see how to maybe make one, I stumbled across these origami pouches, and I thought, why not sew one of these and include ephemera and other goodies, instead of a box. These are easy to sew. Mine are 18 x 18 inches of fabric. The size of the front pockets depend on how you fold the center. This was my first try. You can see how low the outer pockets are.
This is what this one looks like pulled together.
Here you can see the difference in the front pocket and the height of the pouch. I used scraps of fabric I had laying around.
Inside view.
When it's pulled together, you can see the pockets better. You have also got the same pockets on the other side.
Here I just stuck an altered envelope in the pocket so you can maybe see it better.
This one is also made out of several scraps.
They are fun and easy to make.
My daughter's have already "claimed" these 2 pouches!!!
I want to make another one and add ephemera and other goodies.
