This origami snowman is perfect for December, when it’s also the season of snow.

A snowman is made by placing one snowball on top of another, right? With a clever folding method, you can express the two stacked snowballs using just a single sheet of origami paper.

You can also make a scarf around the snowman’s neck.

If you use polka-dot or patterned paper, the pattern becomes the scarf, making it extra cute.

You can draw the eyes and mouth yourself, so each snowman has its own personality.

You can stick them on a wreath or a calendar, so try arranging them in different ways to expand the range of your creations.

Let me show you how to make a present box with a ribbon.

Place the colored side of the origami paper facing up and fold it in half horizontally to make a crease in the center.

Open it, then fold the top and bottom edges inward by about 1 cm.

Turn the paper over and fold the top and bottom edges to meet the center crease.

Rotate the paper vertically, then turn it over again and fold down the top edge by about 2 cm.

Open and squash the white section in the center of the folded part to form the ribbon, then fold up the bottom edge and tuck it under the ribbon.

Your present box is complete!

Take a square sheet of origami paper divided into four equal parts and fold it into a triangle three times.

Hold the corner that becomes the center of the origami, then round off the edge and cut off the tip.

Draw two curved lines up and down from the left edge to just before the right edge, and make cuts along those curves with scissors.

Open the paper, then glue the middle sections with the slits together at the center on all four sides.

Make another one the same way, rotate it slightly, and attach them back-to-back.

Finally, add a string for hanging, and it’s complete.

Foldable with one sheet! Cute reindeer

[Origami] Cute and Easy Reindeer Tutorial! How to Fold a One-Sheet Winter Christmas Decoration
Foldable with one sheet! Cute reindeer

You can make a reindeer that brings Santa using a single sheet of origami paper.

First, fold the paper into a triangle twice to make creases.

With the white side up, fold the top corner to the center, then fold it back leaving about 1 centimeter.

Turn the paper over and fold the triangle sticking out at the top down toward you.

Now, using the triangular creases, fold the paper into a square.

Once folded, place the square with the side that hasn’t been folded yet facing up, and position it so that the corner that will be the center of the origami points downward.

Fold both lower edges toward the center line, turn the paper over, then slide the white triangle at the top to the left and right to bring the back section forward.

Fold down the top corner that you brought forward, turn the paper over, and fold the upper left and right edges toward the center line.

These will become the reindeer’s antlers, and the remaining left and right triangles will be the ears.

Adjust their shapes, then fold the three bottom corners inward to shape the face, and you’re done.

Draw the reindeer’s eyes and nose with a pen.

This idea starts with making creases.

By making firm, precise creases first, the following steps will be easier, so proceed carefully.

After creasing, fold the origami twice to make a small square, then squash the pocket to form two triangles.

Take only the top layer of the triangle and fold the right edge to align with the center line.

Turn the paper over and fold the other side the same way.

In this state, hold the remaining right corner and slowly pull the left corner; the folded sections will swap sides, creating the two bottom points of the star.

Finally, adjust for balance and make step folds with the remaining corners to finish.

Recommended for winter! Cute snowman

Here’s an origami idea for a snowman wearing a hat.

You can make the hat with just 4 folds and the snowman with 7 folds.

Let’s start by making the snowman with a larger sheet of origami paper.

Fold the paper in half into a square to make a crease, then open it and fold the bottom edge up to meet the crease.

Fold the top edge down so it sits about 1 cm above the crease.

Fold the left and right edges inward so they meet at the center, then fold all four corners into triangles, and the snowman is done.

Next, let’s make the hat with a smaller sheet of origami paper.

Fold the paper into a triangle, then fold the top corner down to meet the base.

Fold the left and right edges up to align with the top edge, and the hat is complete.

Draw a face on the snowman and place the hat on top to finish.
