How to fold a playable Anpanman spinning topNEW!

Let’s make a Beyblade you can easily battle with using origami! In this idea, you’ll use four sheets of origami paper to create the outer body, inner body, handle, and hand decorations, then combine them into a single Beyblade.
The inner body and handle are basically made with the zabuton fold.
The outer body follows the same steps as the trick boat up to a point.
After making two boats, squash both sides into squares, then transform them into diamond shapes.
Draw the Anpanman illustration on this part.
Finally, make four hand decorations using origami paper cut into quarters, insert them into the illustrated section, and you’re done! The folding steps themselves aren’t difficult, so it’s perfect for parent-child origami time.
makeup palette

Here’s how to make a makeup palette out of paper.
Prepare the following: thick board cover paper (Mino size), mini strong magnets, a slim aluminum mirror (peel off the mirror only), decorative origami paper, tape, double-sided tape, plastic sheet, and scissors.
Pre-measure and cut the lengths for the outer base and spine, the palette base, the outer paper, and the palette paper.
Glue the outer base layers together, place the mirror, mark a cutout 2 cm from the top of the base, and cut it out.
Use double-sided tape to attach the outer paper, base, and spine, then wrap the base with the paper.
Apply OPP tape to cover and seal everything together.
Once you attach the mirror, the outer section is complete.
Next, mark sizes on the palette base, score the folds, cut where needed, add the magnets, and glue down the folded sections.
Attach the paper with double-sided tape, then assemble it with the outer palette to finish!
Recycled Mini Notebook

Recycle leftover paper! Here’s how to make a mini notebook.
Do you have magazines or flyers you kept thinking you might use someday? Here’s how to turn those papers you couldn’t throw away into a mini notebook.
Materials: any unwanted magazines or leaflets.
A4 size is easy to work with, but other sizes are fine too.
First, place the paper vertically and fold it in half.
After halving, rotate it horizontally and fold it in half again.
If you can fold it so it’s divided into 16 sections, you’re good.
Cut a slit along the crease at the center, then rotate it horizontally and make another slit.
After that, fold along the creases and your mini notebook is complete! There’s also a simpler method: fold a rectangular sheet into 8 sections and just cut a slit in the middle.
If you use plain paper, you can even make an original mini picture book—try different types and sizes of paper and have fun experimenting.
bandage with gauze
@cuty_diyorigami Handmade bandages and case ♡#diy#handmade#fyp#craft#cute#foryou
♬ Candy Pop – TWICE
We’ll show you how to make a handmade bandage case and bandages with gauze.
Prepare gauze, character stickers, scissors, colored construction paper, and a keychain.
Stick the character sticker onto the check-pattern sheet, then attach gauze to the inside to complete the gauze bandage.
Next, cut the colored construction paper into the shape of a bandage holder and glue it together.
Once it’s assembled, punch a hole for the chain, thread the chain through, and place your finished gauze bandages inside.
Now you have your own original cute bandages and a bandage case!
Tamaire game

Here’s how to make a Ring Toss Launcher.
Prepare B5 colored construction paper, a paper plate, scissors, cellophane tape, a stapler, a felt-tip pen, and glue.
Fold the construction paper into thirds, then unfold it, turn it the other way, and accordion-fold it.
Once accordion-folded, fold it in half and secure the center with cellophane tape.
Next, turn the paper plate upside down and firmly tape the front and back of the accordion-folded paper to the plate.
Cut two slits at the top of the accordion, fold the tabs up, and the ring-launching part is complete.
Finally, roll a strip of colored paper into a ring and staple it to make the ring.
Set the ring on the accordion; when you press the accordion down, the ring pops up—it’s lots of fun!
