[For Girls] Cute Origami Ideas (71–80)
A cosmos whose petals only need to be folded three times
How about a cosmos flower with plenty of petals that looks almost real? Fold a 7.5 cm square of origami paper into a triangle three times, draw the shape of a petal with a pencil, then cut it out.
If you cut it with a jagged edge, you can recreate the distinctive cosmos petals.
Make two of these and glue them together.
For the center, take a yellow piece of origami paper 7.5 cm wide and 2 cm tall, fold it in half, make many fine slits, and roll it up.
Secure the end with glue and gently flare the slit portion outward.
Attach it to the flower, and you’re done.
It’s amazing that you can make a lovely cosmos with just three folds!
A Playable! Ribbon Ring Origami
Also great for pretend play! This is an origami ring with a cute ribbon.
First, fold into a square and fold the front edge up to the center, then cut.
Take the cut piece and fold the top and bottom edges to align with the crease.
Fold the left and right edges in to meet the center.
Fold the top and bottom edges to the central crease.
Unfold, then make inside reverse folds along the creases.
Open it and fold the layers inward along the creases.
Fold the left side to the right, using the upper and lower right corners as a guide, to the right.
Fold only the top layer of the top and bottom to align with the center slit.
Next, fold the left and right edges.
Flatten the triangles.
Turn it over and tuck the left and right edges into the inner gaps.
Once tucked, fold the ends.
Fold the left and right sides along the outside of the triangles to shape it into a ring, and you’re done!
Easy and cute! How to fold a ribbon
This is a three-dimensional piece where both sides of the knot are shaped like petals.
It’s a great idea for those looking for a ribbon shape different from the classic triangle.
First, fold the top and bottom corners of the origami toward the center, then fold the same way once more.
Fold it in half by bringing the left and right sides together, then open the two corners along the crease and squash them into triangles.
Turn the origami so the triangular parts are on the inside and a flat surface is facing up, then fold back the previously layered left and right sections to the opposite side, aligning them with the squashed triangles.
Fold all four corners of the new creases into small triangles, then gently open the origami to the left and right to complete the ribbon.

A customizable origami ribbon
You can write a message in the opening! Here’s how to fold a cute ribbon card.
Place the origami with the white side facing up.
Fold it using the Kannon fold, then fold both top corners down to the center.
Using the folded corners as a starting point, fold the corners diagonally.
Make a fold about 2.5 cm below the top corner.
Fold the center corner upward.
Fold the bottom edge up to meet the folded corners.
From the edge as the starting point, fold the corners diagonally downward.
Tuck the folded part into the gap.
Fold the center corner just a little, and your ribbon card is complete!
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.
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!
