Would you like to make a heart garland that can be used for wall decorations, hanging ornaments, and even Tanabata events? It’s a perfect idea for a lively origami activity at a day service, where everyone can enjoy making it together! First, fold the origami paper so that one side is divided into eight equal parts, then cut along the fold lines to make eight strips.

Use four of them: fold one strip in half with the colored side facing outward, and fold the remaining three strips in half with the white side facing outward.

Next, place one of the white-out strips on top of the first colored-out strip, staple them together at the base, then curl the outer ends downward to form a heart—done! Repeat the same steps to complete the heart garland.

This kind of detailed handiwork is also beneficial for seniors’ finger dexterity training and can help with dementia prevention.

Heart Message Card Made with Origami

This is a heart-shaped message card made from origami that’s sure to delight as a gift! Instead of having a heart drawn or decorated on the card, the card itself is shaped like a heart.

When you open the heart, the message appears! The folding method is simple with no difficult steps, but if the paper is small, the inside reverse fold part can be a bit tricky.

Using tweezers or making it with slightly larger origami paper might be a good idea!
