Grape decoration

[Autumn Origami] Easy and Cute Grape Decoration / Wall Hanging Food Fruit Origami Grape

Autumn is the season when a variety of vegetables and fruits are harvested.

Among autumn fruits, let’s make a classic grape decoration using origami.

It’s a simple project: just attach grape berries, a stem, and leaves to a triangular folded base.

If you crumple the paper to make textured berries or use different colors of origami for the berries, it will look more realistic—highly recommended.

Besides using it as a regular decoration, you could also attach a string and turn it into a hanging ornament.

Halloween monster balloon

Halloween Monster Balloon 🎃 #origami #shorts #Halloween

Halloween, a major event in autumn, features a variety of characters centered around ghosts.

Let’s create those Halloween characters by adding designs to origami balloons.

Since all the origami pieces share the same cube shape, your choice of colors and how you draw the designs are key.

While including classic motifs like jack-o’-lanterns and mummies, try coming up with your own monsters as well.

It could also be fun to incorporate not only monsters from overseas but Japanese yokai, too.

Cute maple leaves

[Autumn Origami] Easy! Cute Maple Leaf How to Make / Fall Foliage Decoration Origami Maple

When it comes to plants that symbolize autumn, brilliantly colored red and yellow autumn leaves come to mind.

Let’s make those evocative fall leaves with origami.

This project combines parts to create a three-dimensional finish, resulting in sturdy origami that works not only as part of a decoration but also stands on its own.

Cut small pieces of origami paper with scissors, fold them into diamond shapes, and assemble them to form a maple leaf.

By paying attention to the seam in the center, you’ll achieve a lifelike three-dimensional shape.

You can even aim for a more realistic look by intentionally combining parts of slightly different sizes instead of using pieces that are all the same.

Easy! Cosmos Origami

[Origami] Easy way to fold a cosmos flower: autumn origami, a not-difficult method that even kids can make [origami]

Here’s something you can make by folding, cutting, and gluing.

First, make three vertical crease lines, then add seven more vertical creases from the opposite direction.

Open it up, and along the first three creases you made, fold so that both ends are folded inward, leaving the center open.

Following the seven creases you made, cut the sheet into four equal strips.

Fold each strip lengthwise into a narrow piece, then glue them together in a radial pattern to form the petals.

Attach a green strip of origami paper folded lengthwise for the stem, and you’re done! Try making lots, bundling them into a bouquet, or decorating a wall with just the petals.

Cosmos like a medal

[Slow Origami] How to Make a Cosmos Flower / [Origami] How to Make a Cosmos

Origami cosmos that resemble a medal are perfect as a gift for celebrations! First, fold a 3.75 cm × 3.75 cm yellow sheet of origami into a small octagon to make the pistil.

Next, for the petals, prepare a 15 cm × 15 cm sheet and fold with the side you want as the petal color facing inward.

Fold vertically to create a crease, then fold both edges toward that crease and flip it over.

Fold all four corners into triangles, unfold everything, then fold the same shapes in the opposite direction.

Using the creases, form shapes like two boats, then make four squares, and from each square create two diamond-like shapes.

Finally, fold the corners, make a slit in the center of each diamond and open it up, then attach the pistil in the center, and you’re done! Using tweezers to lift the petals will add a three-dimensional look.
