Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star

Origami [Twinkle Star] How to Fold — Perfect for Tanabata decorations or Christmas ♪ [Voice Commentary] ◇ Origami “Stars” Easy Christmas Decorations Tutorial

How about making a sparkly, shining star out of origami? All you need is a 15 cm square of origami paper.

If you stick a rhinestone or a sticker in the center, it will look even more festive.

To fold it, you repeatedly fold and unfold—halving it into a square or a triangle, and making folds similar to the bird base—then open it back up and shape it into a star along the crease lines.

There are no particularly difficult steps; it’s a matter of repeating small, careful actions, so take your time and follow the steps in order.

It’s a nice touch that you can use it not only for Christmas but also for Tanabata!

Christmas candle

[Christmas Origami] How to Make a Candle | Origami Candle

Candles that light up the Christmas scenery.

How about making them with origami to fill your room with a warm atmosphere? Prepare red origami paper, fold a small portion along just one of the four edges, then fold the paper in half with the white side facing out to make a crease.

Next, fold both sides toward that crease twice.

Make small cuts along the edge of the remaining red section and trim it into the shape of a candle flame to finish.

You can also draw in a yellow flame if you like! It might be nice to make a separate Christmas cake and display them side by side as decorations.
