Santa Claus delivers presents to children on Christmas Eve.

How about making an easy origami project that anyone can try, themed around his boots? Fold the origami paper from the top and bottom after making a crease down the center, open it again, rotate it, and fold it up from the bottom.

Fold along the lines, fold up from the bottom, then fold the piece in half.

Open the inner layers of the paper on both sides and tidy up the corners to finish.

Let’s make an essential Christmas Santa Claus! Prepare a sheet of red origami, position it with the pointed tip at the top, and fold vertical guide creases.

From this setup, fold from Santa’s head down to his feet.

You can complete Santa’s entire body with a single sheet, so there’s no need to glue other pieces together.

Draw Santa’s face on the white area, and add a belt around his tummy on the body.

For the nose, using a small round sticker is also recommended.

Put them up on your wall at home to boost the Christmas spirit!

That irresistibly puffy feel! A star-shaped box

Let’s try making an origami box with a fun shape: it has a small opening and a plump, rounded interior.

The puffy shape looks cute, and the overall star-like form makes it even more adorable.

After folding to a certain point, use scissors to cut about halfway.

When you unfold the cut piece, it becomes a pentagon.

Fold this pentagonal origami into the shape of a box.

Adjust the opening and the bottom, and you’ll have a plump, star-shaped box.

You can put in small items, of course, as well as little treats like candies or chocolates.

Sirius

I’ll show you how to make an easy Sirius star using a single sheet of origami paper! First, fold the paper to create fine crease lines, then unfold.

Fold it in half by bringing the top and bottom corners together, then fold it in half horizontally to make a square.

Open one side and squash it into a triangle.

Flip it over and squash-fold the other side into a triangle the same way.

Next, fold the top part of the triangle so that the corners meet.

Fold the left and right corners toward the center, then fold the front layer downward.

Tuck the folded part into the triangular pocket.

Flip it over and repeat the same folds on the other side.

Finally, blow into it to inflate, and shape it along the creases into a star—done!

tree box

You can make a cute tree box with two sheets of origami paper.

For the box part, use a slightly smaller sheet by trimming two edges 5 mm each.

The tree part can be regular size.

For both sheets, fold twice into triangles and twice into squares to make crease lines, then collapse them into the form where two squares overlap.

Fold the box part using the same steps as for a standard candy box.

For the tree, first make a center crease on the square so that two triangles form, then squash the four pocket sections.

Fold all the small triangular flaps inward, collapse it into a square pyramid, and you’re done! Stack the box and the tree, and decorate with stars and ornaments.
