How to fold an origami Miffy / “Miffy” origami
Miffy

How about making an easy Miffy using white origami paper? First, fold the square in half to make a crease, then fold the top and bottom toward the center.

Fold it in half again, open it using that crease, and fold the tip into a triangle to form the ears.

Fold the left and right sides toward the center to narrow it a bit, then open the other tip and fold it into a triangle—this will be the face.

Next, round off the ear tips by folding them back and turn the model over; you should see the face shape.

Finally, draw cute eyes and Miffy’s distinctive X-shaped mouth with a black pen, and your Miffy is complete!

Reindeer play an important role in delivering the precious presents and Santa that children look forward to.

Let’s make one of these wonderful reindeer using just a single sheet of origami paper.

You can fold the antlers and body without using scissors or glue! There are many steps, but the folds are simple, so you’ll enjoy the process.

The shape of the antlers and the roundness of the body will change depending on the folding angles, so try creating your very own cute reindeer.

A bright red nose looks cute drawn with a pen, and a round sticker would be lovely too!

A long-tailed tit that can stand up or be displayed as a decoration

In winter, the long-tailed tit (Shima-enaga) becomes covered in pure white feathers, transforming into a plump and adorable figure.

Using a single sheet of black origami, you can make a stand-up type Shima-enaga—let’s give it a try! First, crease diagonally and vertically to make an X.

Fold it into a square as if tucking everything inward so it becomes about one-quarter of the original size.

On one side, fold in the surrounding paper so that the surface turns black.

Also make a tail on the black side so it can stand.

After folding in half, create a long, thin crease to mark the boundary between the face and the body.

Fold back the bottom and both ends of the white side to form the wings and feet, and you’re done! Draw the Shima-enaga’s face with a pen or add stickers to complete it.

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.

“Childcare Ideas: Winter Origami” Fold in 4 + 5 Steps! Snow Rabbit Origami (Kids Can Make It Themselves!) · Origami Snow Rabbit Easy
A snow rabbit that folds in 4 + 5 steps!

Prepare one sheet of white origami paper and two sheets of green origami paper that are each 1/4 the size of the white one.

With just four folds for the white paper and five folds for each green piece, you’ll have a snow rabbit! First, fold the white paper into a triangle.

Then fold one of the long, sharp corners down deeply and the other one down more shallowly.

Fold the remaining corner slightly downward as well to complete the snow rabbit’s body.

Next, fold a green piece into a triangle and open it; fold both sides in toward the crease you made.

Where any white shows, also fold those edges toward the center crease.

Make two of these and attach them to the body you made earlier to create the ears, and you’re done! Don’t forget to draw on the eyes and mouth.
