Hi! I have been trying to make this treasure box but I got stuck at step 12 onwards. If anyone could help me.... I want to make it as a gift for my cousin. The links are below:

Step 12 means that you have to do a valley fold on the pleat that is on the reverse side. Just that.

Thanks but I can't do steps 19 onwards as well.

19 looks more complicated than it actually is. You've realised this is a curved model haven't you? First you have to make step 18 carefully. Maybe you can rehearse on a separate paper. Divide a paper in 8 strips the same width. then fold one of the corners so that it resembles step 18. Pinch the curve and then just using that curve as a guide, make a valley fold that is half way between the curve and the straight crease.
