Origami Accordion Box

Don't worry, I'm not adding another craft to my list. 

I just happened across this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzK47Ro3qhM) on YouTube while I was looking for something else related to a project I am working on.  The video shows how to make this paper box.

It is three accordion-folded paper cups (or boxes) that are nestled together to form a chain.  If you linked enough of the individual cups together, you could link the two ends together, forming an Origami water wheel. 

 

The opening of the middle cup faces down and is resting on the table in the pictures above.  In the picture below, you can see the opening of the middle cup. 

 

In her video tutorial, Leyla Torres uses two different Origami papers, with the middle cup being folded from a different paper than the outside cups.

My version is made of vellum paper, as I don't have any Origami paper.  Nor do I intend to start buying more expensive paper that I will never use.  I have more than enough scrapbooking paper that I will never use. 

(Wow. Did I just admit to having "more than enough" of anything?)
