Kakihime
Let’s try making a cute persimmon princess, Kaki-hime, out of origami.
We’ll make it in separate parts: head, body, leaf, and scarf.
For the persimmon head, fold three corners toward the center, then fold the remaining corner down to the bottom.
Finally, fold each of the four corners slightly inward to finish.
Fold the leaf into a shape like a hydrangea leaf.
The trickiest part is the body, but the folding itself is simple.
There are many steps and some fine details, so if a child is folding it, an adult should help.
The scarf is easy—just fold it three times and tuck it into the body.
Once you’re done, draw the face and stick round stickers on the cheeks to make it extra cute.
Easy Cat

Four connected cats look adorable! Here’s an easy-to-make cat idea.
Autumn is shedding season for cats.
This simple cat-motif craft is recommended for people who have cats at home or those who love cat motifs.
Prepare origami paper, scissors, and a pen for sketching, and give it a try.
You can use any color of origami you like.
If you make it with black or orange origami, it could also work well as a Halloween decoration.
Be sure to try it out!
Easy! How to cut into gingko-leaf slices (ichō-giri)

Let’s make beautiful ginkgo leaves! Here are some easy ideas for cutting out ginkgo shapes.
Many people look forward to watching ginkgo trees turn from green to yellow in autumn.
Why not decorate your room with beautiful ginkgo leaves too? Using yellow-toned origami paper works well.
Start by folding the paper with the colored side facing inward and sketch your outline.
If you capture the ginkgo leaf’s characteristic jagged edges, it will look even more realistic!

When you think of autumn, many of you probably picture the moon-viewing festival, right? Let’s make a decoration for your room to prepare for the occasion! You’ll need a compass, a pen, and yellow origami paper.
The video also shows how to draw a circle without using a compass, so check it out for reference.
The rabbit pounding mochi against the full moon is beautiful, isn’t it? Another nice point is that the cutout pieces can be repurposed for a separate project!
Acorns and squirrels

The squirrels holding big acorns are so cute! Here are some ideas featuring acorns and squirrels.
When you think of squirrels, they live by eating nuts and the like, right? This time, let’s make a pair of squirrels working together to carry a large acorn.
You’ll need scissors, origami paper, and a pen.
Choosing origami in your favorite colors will help set the mood.
First, fold the origami paper twice and sketch your outline.
Be careful not to mix up the orientation of the paper while you do this.
Acorn Parent and Child

The way they look like they’re holding hands is so cute! Here’s an idea for an acorn parent-and-child craft.
When it comes to autumn, many children probably look forward to collecting acorns.
Seeing acorns on the roadside really gives you a sense of the season, doesn’t it? This time, why not make a hand-holding acorn parent and child using origami paper, scissors, and a pen? Choose any colors you like for the origami paper.
