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.
Cute for wrapping too! How to fold a ribbon
This is a stylish way to fold a ribbon for wrapping.
Fold the origami paper into a triangle twice, then fold it twice more to make a square.
Crease along the folds, place the side that doesn’t open on top, and bend it slightly.
Open it up, then fold it again along the square formed in the center.
Fold a few centimeters inward from the edges and open it, then make five small cuts with scissors to shape it into a ribbon.
The three-dimensional form and the way the ribbon ends cross downward make it look just like the real thing.
It looks lovely on gifts and wrapping, so give it a try.

Recommended for decorations! How to fold a ribbon
Here’s an easy way to fold a ribbon from a single sheet of origami paper.
First, fold it in half horizontally, then fold the sides toward the center crease.
Fold it in half vertically, then fold it in half horizontally.
Open one layer and squash it into a triangle; repeat on the other side.
Continue folding while making creases, and when you open both sides, the ribbon’s center will appear like an origami balloon.
Press that center flat, and finally make small cuts with scissors on the left and right to shape it, and you’re done.
It looks like a detailed ribbon, but it’s surprisingly easy to make, so give it a try!
Rabbit bookmark
We’ll show you how to fold a cute rabbit motif that makes the most of origami’s colored front and white back—perfect for little kids and girls who love bunnies.
It looks adorable as-is for decoration, but it also folds into a handy shape you can use as a bookmark for books or notebooks.
Once you’re done, it makes a great little gift, too.
Quick and fun to fold, delightful to receive—why not master this rabbit-motif origami yourself?
Perfect for small gifts! Gift wrapping
If you’re thinking that a birthday present might feel a bit plain when both the wrapping bag and its contents are store-bought, how about a handmade mini pouch made from origami? It’s the perfect little pouch for small chocolates or candies, so once you learn how to make it, you’ll find it handy in many situations.
All you need is origami paper and glue—even if you’re not confident with crafts, it’s OK! Using 15 cm × 15 cm origami paper yields a palm-sized pouch.
Since it’s made by layering the paper, it’s reasonably sturdy too, which is a nice bonus.
How to fold a puffy heart
This is a heart origami that you finish by blowing air into it.
First, fold the origami paper in half.
Once you’ve made the crease, open it up, rotate the paper so the crease runs vertically, fold up the bottom edge about 5 mm, then fold the paper in half, matching the top edge to the bottom.
Next, fold both top corners down to meet the bottom edge to form triangles.
Fold those corners back so they align with the outer edges, crease well, then unfold.
Now fold both corners so their tips meet the starting points of the inner creases.
Fold the top edge corners, which were first folded inward, outward, and tuck them into the gaps of the corners you just folded.
Finally, fold the corners to round the overall shape and you’re done.
Blow air into it to shape it, and the heart is complete.
A heart within a heart!
Here’s an introduction to an origami model where a heart sits inside another heart—and it looks super cute.
To make it, first place the origami paper face up with one edge toward you.
Fold it in half, then fold both edges down to meet the edge.
Open it up, and fold the two ends upward so that triangular crease lines are formed.
Fold the front edge twice, aligning it only with the inner creases.
Open it, flip it over, and squash-fold along all the crease lines.
Turn layers as if you’re opening the inside and make firm creases.
Finally, shape it into a heart so a small heart appears in the center—and you’re done!
