'Pick-Me-Up' Shaped Snake Fold Box Insert: 60-Second Fold of the Week

The piece was art directed and engineered by Eli Kaplan-Wildmann and designed by TOMMY AND YOU as a way to express the organization's gratitude for its members' efforts to make progress, stay positive, and build momentum during a difficult year. This Snake Fold has a story to tell, and you won't want to miss it!
