heart
Heart-shaped origami is a great idea that girls will love.
You can just picture their eyes lighting up at the adorable shape.
Origami is perfect for nurturing children’s sensitivity and concentration! If you fold together as a parent and child, it will surely become a fun memory.
A heart can also be a gift for friends or a decoration for your room.
Once you learn how to fold it, try making it with origami paper in various colors.
A heart-shaped box made from a single sheet
Let’s make a cute heart-shaped trinket box that will make you want to fill it with sweets.
First, fold it into a triangle twice to make creases, then fold the top and bottom corners toward the center.
Fold the same way once more and make a wrap fold.
From here, add more creases and fold it into a heart shape.
Leave the left side as is and fold it toward the center to form the side.
When folding the right corner, shape it into a heart.
Make two and stack them to create a lidded trinket box!
Easy and cute cat box
Bringing out the corners to finish it as a round box is the key to giving it a cat-like look! Place the origami with the white side up and do a zabuton fold.
Flip the paper over, fold two opposite corners to the center, then roll-fold once more to crease and unfold.
Turn the paper over, fold all the center corners outward to form triangles.
Flip it over again, and use the creases you just made to stand up the edges.
Then fold the remaining corners inward to make a box.
Leave only one of the outer corners on either the right or left side unfolded to create the ears!
Cute bear tray
This cute bear tray can actually be made from a single sheet of origami paper.
To create the key feature—the bear’s ears—accordion-fold the top edge, flip the paper over, fold the left and right edges to the same width, then open and squash the pocketed sections at the top left and right.
Next, fold the bottom edge up to twice the width of the top fold, and fold all the corners of the folded-up section into triangles.
Fold this section back halfway to form the tray’s sides.
Then fold the ear sections inward, and tuck the two top corners under the opposite triangular flaps to finish.
You can make the ears look rounder by folding in the tips slightly.
That irresistibly puffy feel! A star-shaped box
Let’s try making an origami box with a fun shape: it has a small opening and a plump, rounded interior.
The puffy shape looks cute, and the overall star-like form makes it even more adorable.
After folding to a certain point, use scissors to cut about halfway.
When you unfold the cut piece, it becomes a pentagon.
Fold this pentagonal origami into the shape of a box.
Adjust the opening and the bottom, and you’ll have a plump, star-shaped box.
You can put in small items, of course, as well as little treats like candies or chocolates.
Heart-shaped book-style card
Fold the origami into a triangle three times with the colored side facing up.
Hold the corner that will be the center of the origami and roundly cut the top.
When you open it, it should look like a flower, so refold the creases alternating mountain and valley folds, and fold it into a heart shape.
If white edges show when folded, trim them with scissors.
The initial rounded cut determines the heart’s shape, so cut to match your image—a round heart, a long narrow heart, and so on.
heart ring
A heart ring that can be used as an accessory or decoration worn on your finger.
Open an origami sheet with a horizontal crease, fold down the upper left and right corners, then fold the tips back behind.
Open the paper as if making a ribbon, fold it again, and then fold the lower part.
Once you make the part that goes on your finger, the origami is complete! It’s a cute item that’s great for children’s play and in childcare settings.
Try making a heart ring you can enjoy customizing by changing the colors and shapes.
Easy! How to Fold a Cute Box
Even beginners at origami can make this! Here’s an easy way to fold a box.
First, flip the paper over, fold it into a triangle twice, and open it.
Fold each corner toward the center.
Open it up, then fold all four corners to the center along the crease lines.
After folding to the middle, lift one layer and fold it upward.
Keep folding along the lines, lift one layer, and fold it up.
Fold the triangular flaps to the back, then open it out so it forms a box shape.
Adjust the shape and you’re done! You can use it in many situations, so try making it to match the season.
Easy! Heart Bookmark
A heart-shaped bookmark that’s perfect as a small gift! Place a sheet of origami cut in half (1/2) horizontally, fold it in half top to bottom to make a crease.
Open it, then fold the top and bottom edges to the center crease and crease again.
Fold the right edge in to match the distance between the creases, and flip the paper over.
Fold the top-right and bottom-right corners in to the center line to make triangles, then flip the paper over and fold along the base of the triangles.
Flip the paper over again and reposition it so the folded section is at the top.
Open the pocketed sections and squash-fold so the paper becomes a rectangle, then fold the four top corners into small triangles—and you’re done.
Easy! How to fold a heart
It’s simple yet very cute, and depending on how you arrange it, it’s perfect as a gift, decoration, or a little accent on a card.
Even beginners can fold it easily, so you can enjoy it right away.
Here, we’ve put together clear steps for making a quick and cute heart.
First, turn the origami over, place a corner facing you, and fold it into a triangle twice.
After folding a corner up to the center line, turn it upside down and fold the other corner up so it aligns with the edge.
Fold both corners up to meet the center line.
Finally, fold the four corners to shape a heart, and you’ll have an adorable result!
