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!
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!
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 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.
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!
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.
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.
