Now, fold the sides at the middle imaginary line. Press it from the edges and fold it from the middle imaginary line to make sure that the sides meet at the imaginary line.

Now, fold the sides at the middle imaginary line. Press it from the edges and fold it from the middle imaginary line to make sure that the sides meet at the imaginary line.

Once you've made the sides meet at the middle, fold the inner edges away from each other. It should be folded by 0.5 cm.

Unfold the inner edges.

Unfold the inner edges.

Fold all the four corners to the imaginary line created by unfolding the inner edges- You unfolded the inner edges in the previous step.

Fold all the four corners to the imaginary line created by unfolding the inner edges- You unfolded the inner edges in the previous step.

Now fold the inner edges back onto the four corners.

Now fold the inner edges back onto the four corners.

Bring the side edges away from each other, lifting the top and the bottom edge. Expand the box, making four creases to shape its bottom.
