Cute heart letter
You’ll need two sheets of origami paper because the letter and the heart are made separately.
First, place the paper face up with one edge toward you.
Fold it in half into a square twice to make creases, then fold the front edge up to the center line twice.
Next, fold both corners up into triangles.
Fold the left and right edges inward to align with the triangles.
Fold the top corner down to meet the center—your letter is done.
For the heart, fold the origami paper into a square twice to make creases.
Fold the front edge up to the center, then fold both left and right edges to the center.
Fold both pre-folded edges up to the center.
Fold the front edge up to the top edge, then keep folding so the heart appears on the back—done! Slip the heart into the letter.
Perfect for bookmarks! Heart with roe
Please prepare a strip of origami paper cut into quarters.
Fold it to align the left/right and top/bottom edges to make a cross crease, then open it and place the origami with the white side up.
Place it horizontally.
Next, fold the left and right edges inward by about 1 cm, flip the paper over, and fold the corners of the folded sections into triangles aligning them with the center line.
Flip the paper over again, and this time fold inward along the bases of the triangles on the left and right.
Open the pocket on the back side of the folded section and squash it, then fold both top corners of the squashed part into triangles.
You should now have a neat heart on the back.
Finally, fold the left and right sides to meet the center line to shape it into a heart, and you’re done!
Square box with lid
Let’s make a cute lidded trinket box.
Rotate the paper and fold it into thirds twice to create creases for a 3×3 grid.
Add diagonal creases to the corner squares, then fold along the creases to form the box shape.
For the lid, first do a zabuton fold with the origami paper, then fold the top, bottom, left, and right edges in sequence to meet at the center.
Unfold those sections, and using the creases as guides, repeat the same folds once more.
Leave the two corners that are diagonal from the first folds intact, open all the other folded parts, and collapse into a box shape.
Next, tuck the rim inward to make the side height one-half.
Finally, attach a bead as a handle, and you’re done!
A box shaped like candy
This is an adorable candy-shaped box that adds a little surprise to everyday life.
The idea involves a series of steps that create fine creases.
Using those creases, you’ll ultimately form a hexagon in the center with triangles on either side, finishing it in the shape of a candy.
Since the creases are crucial, please proceed carefully with each step.
If the creases are properly made, the shape will hold without needing tape or other fasteners.
Use polka-dot or striped origami paper for a fun, pop look.
A simple and stylish box
This is a simple and stylish tall origami box with a clean, attractive shape! First, with an edge facing you, crease the paper into eighths both vertically and horizontally.
Next, fold it into a triangle twice to make creases, then add creases to the left and right sides.
It’s important to align the creases precisely when folding.
Once you’ve made creases at all four points, fold along them from the sides so that all faces form the shape of a box.
Finally, firmly crease each edge again to refine the shape, and you’re done! It can be used as a small container or for wrapping, making it a handy, easy-to-make practical item.
Origami heart container
It’s perfect for holding small items or wrapping gifts.
First, place the white side of the origami paper facing up and fold it into a triangle twice.
Fold the top and bottom corners to the center twice and open them.
Do the same for the other two corners that don’t have creases yet to make crease lines.
Fold the left and right corners to the center line to create creases.
Let’s keep folding to form a box shape.
On just one side, mark a heart shape with a pen or similar tool, and fold along it so it holds its shape—that’s it! By adjusting the heart-shaped lid or the body, you can create your own cute, original container.
Simply changing the colors or patterns can completely change the vibe, making the crafting process even more fun.
How to fold a heart box
Some people make paper boxes to use as trash bins, right? I think a heart-shaped box like this would be super cute! In this idea, you start by creasing the paper to make a 4-by-4 grid of 16 squares.
Once you’ve made the creases, place the origami with the white side up, fold the left corner toward the center, and make a crease.
Then turn the paper over so the colored side is up, and, while folding the bottom and left edges inward along the creases, fold the left corner into a square shape.
This folded section will form the heart.
From here, you’ll add more creases to shape it into a box, so take it step by step and proceed carefully.
A cute box with mini drawers
Here’s an idea for a drawer made by combining two square boxes.
One of the boxes has a handle, so it scores top marks for both design and usability! Fold two opposite corners of the origami to the center, then fold again into thirds to make creases.
After that, fold the remaining corners inward to form the box shape.
To make the box with a handle, fold one of the corners that would normally be folded to the center back outward.
Make several and combine them to create a chest of drawers.
Love Cats Pocket
If you’ve been thinking, “I wish there were a simple heart-shaped origami to hold Valentine’s chocolates…,” this is the one for you.
First, place the origami paper front side up with one edge facing you.
Fold it in half, then fold the left and right edges to meet at the center.
Fold the two corners on the closed side up toward the center and open them back up.
Use the creases to make mountain and valley folds to set the lines.
Open it up and fold in sequence so it forms a heart shape.
Next, fold the white section down.
The bottom edge will become the ears, so fold diagonally with that in mind.
Do the same on both sides.
Fold the top up and the cat is complete! If the chocolate is thin, you can tuck it into the pocket, so this is recommended.
Useful! Double-opening box
It’s a brilliant idea: it opens and closes from both sides, and the lower part of the lid overlaps so it shuts securely.
It may look difficult to make, but even beginners can give it a try.
First, fold all four corners of the origami square toward the center.
Fold the top corner outward once; after creasing, unfold it, then fold the corner again along the crease.
Next, fold the bottom edge up to align with the base of the top triangle.
Unfold the bottom edge, then fold the right edge to align with the corner of the small triangle created by the previous fold.
Continue by folding the top edge and the left edge in the same way.
From here, add fine creases to all four corners, reshape the whole piece into a long, narrow form, then form the lids at the top and bottom, and the box section in the center.
