Cute star-shaped box

This is a star-shaped origami box that looks cute just as it is on display.
Because you fold it into a star shape, some steps may feel a bit complex.
But that makes the sense of accomplishment even greater when it’s finished.
It’s a piece I’d love origami enthusiasts to try.
As you keep folding and adjust the form, the star shape will come together.
Once it’s done, just imagining what to put inside can be exciting.
You could make several boxes to decorate your room, or fill them with sweets and give them as gifts.
Stylish star box

Fold the origami paper in half, then fold the right edge to align with the top and bottom edges to make a crease.
Fold the left corner to the center point of the crease, then fold it back along the crease.
Next, align the right bottom edge with the folded-back crease and fold, then fold the paper in half so the shapes overlap neatly.
Using scissors, cut off the excess along the lowest diagonal line to make a pentagon.
Open the paper and fold all the pentagon’s corners inward, then fold the newly formed corners in the same way.
Turn the paper over, make creases by folding along the straight lines that connect each corner, and use these creases to raise the sides and form a star shape.
3D! Star-shaped accessory case

You can flatten and store it when not in use! It’s a star-shaped trinket box.
Fold the origami in half, then in half again to make a square.
After creasing, open it back to the half-folded state, align both side edges to the center line to crease, then unfold.
Fold the two bottom corners up to the outer crease, then fold again so the new creases align with the center line.
In this state, trim off the unnecessary top portion, and the origami becomes a hexagon.
Fold the edges of the hexagon inward, crease the center of the origami into a hexagon, then keep adding creases as you collapse it into a smaller hexagon.
Finally, fold the center area outward to make the opening of the container, press the sides inward to form a star shape, and you’re done!
Cute winter fairy
Here’s an idea for making a little fairy using two sheets of origami paper.
The face takes 7 folds and the body takes 4 folds to complete! Let’s start with the face.
Place the paper with the white side up, fold it in half by matching the left and right corners, crease well, then open it.
Next, fold the top left and right edges in to meet the center crease.
Flip the paper over, fold the bottom corner up into a triangle, then fold it up again so the whole paper forms an isosceles triangle.
Flip it over, fold the bottom two corners inward, and the face is done.
For the body, follow the same steps up to making the creases and folding the left and right edges to the center.
From there, fold the bottom corner up to form an isosceles triangle, and the body is complete! Glue the parts together, then draw the face and hair to finish.
A snowman that folds after 7 times plus 4 times

Let’s make seven snowmen and four hats.
For the hats, use origami paper that is one quarter the size of the snowman’s paper.
We’ll start with the snowman: with the colored side facing up, fold the paper in half by bringing the top and bottom edges together, crease well, then unfold.
Next, fold the bottom edge up to the crease, and fold the top edge down so it aligns about 1 cm above the crease.
Flip the paper over, fold the left and right edges together to make a center crease, then fold both the left and right edges in to meet that crease.
Finally, fold all four corners inward, and the snowman is complete! Now for the hat: fold the paper into a triangle.
Fold the top corner of the triangle down to meet the bottom edge, then fold both the left and right edges up to align with the top edge.
That completes the hat.
Glue the two together and draw a face on the snowman to finish.
Easy! Origami Snowman

Speaking of snowmen, they’re usually two-tiered, but this time let’s make a three-tiered snowman! First, fold the top and bottom corners of the origami paper toward the center.
Flip the paper over, then fold the top and bottom edges you just made toward the center in the same way.
At this point, the top and bottom corners will stick out, so fold those in to meet the center as well.
Next, place the paper vertically and make creases by folding the top and bottom corners twice each.
Align the corners with the center of the paper and the inner corners of the diamonds at the top and bottom.
Once the creases are made, flip the paper over and perform a pleat fold from the bottom, matching the creases to create the three tiers of the snowman.
Then, using the remaining top crease, fold the top part of the paper to the back, and fold the corners of the pleated section into triangles.
Finally, tuck the remaining bottom corner to the back, and your snowman is complete!
Make it with origami! Pinecone wreath
It’s an idea for a wreath made not with real pinecones, but with pinecones crafted from origami.
First, crumple the origami paper once to add wrinkles and texture.
Then cut it in half, glue the pieces so they form a wide rectangle, and fold it in half so the top and bottom edges overlap.
Make fine slits along the looped edge, then roll it up tightly to complete the pinecone.
Make the leaves and red berries from origami as well.
Finally, attach the leaves to a wreath base made from thick cardstock, and decorate it with the pinecones and red berries to finish.
