[For Senior Care Facilities] Feel the Autumn! Collection of Maple Leaf Wall Decoration Ideas

Simple Maple Leaf

Here’s an easy way to fold a maple leaf using a single sheet of origami paper without scissors or glue.

First, fold the paper into a triangle, open it, then fold along the opposite diagonal into a triangle and open it to create crease lines.

Fold the left and right sides inward to meet the center crease.

Turn it over and match the bottom triangle to the top triangle.

Rotate the paper back to its original orientation, open the pockets, and fold them along the center line.

Fold the bottom triangle up in half, turn it over, fold back the upper left and right sections, and shape it into a maple leaf.

You’re done!

Autumn leaves and ginkgo

Maple and Ginkgo Origami: Introducing a Slightly Unusual Leaf Shape! Perfect for Autumn Decorations in September and October! [Tsukuru Mon]

Here’s an idea for making 3D maple leaves using accordion-folded origami.

First fold the paper into a triangle, then accordion-fold the triangle.

Open it up, fold in half, and cut it into a triangle shape.

For the other pieces, cut them into triangles as well, reducing one or two folds each time so they gradually get smaller.

Fold each piece firmly into a triangle, fold in half, and glue—this creates a maple leaf shape! Try combining large and small pieces and pasting them together.

You can use the same accordion-fold method to make ginkgo leaves, too—perfect for autumn crafts or wall decorations.

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.
