How to fold a 3D umbrella with a heart

Origami Umbrella with Heart 3D Folding Method 2 (niceno1)
How to fold a 3D umbrella with a heart

Let’s fold an origami umbrella with a cute heart that will lift your spirits even on rainy days.

Divide one sheet of origami paper into four equal parts and cut them with scissors.

Fold each quarter in half to create the heart section.

It’s a detailed process, but make crisp creases as you carefully form the heart shape.

Once you’ve made seven identical parts, glue them together into an umbrella shape.

When gluing, it’s best to hold the pieces in place with clips or small clothespins so they don’t come apart.

For the umbrella handle, it’s easier if you wrap origami paper around a bamboo skewer to form the shape.

Attach the handle to the umbrella body, add a bead on top, and you’re done.

How to fold a frilled umbrella

Let’s make a 3D origami umbrella with cute frills! Prepare a 15 cm square sheet of origami paper and a 7.5 cm square sheet.

Fold the larger sheet in half twice into a square, then fold it twice into a triangle to create crease lines.

Open it up, fold along the creases to collapse it, then open the pockets and flatten.

Make triangular creases, cut off the top portion, and continue folding.

The step to form the frills is a bit complex, but following the well-made crease lines will make the process easier.

Use the smaller sheet and a toothpick to create a slender handle, then attach it to the umbrella canopy with the tip cut off to finish.

Let’s make an adorable umbrella with a softly puffed, three-dimensional canopy.

Fold a sheet of origami paper into a square twice, then sketch a curved line on the fluttery edge.

Cut along the line with scissors.

Make 10 parts using the same method.

Use double-sided tape to stick the 10 folded parts together, then attach a pipe-cleaner handle to the center and glue the final two parts together to finish.

Try using transparent origami, patterned origami—various papers—to create your own original umbrella.

It could also be nice to hang them indoors like a garland.

A cherry-blossom paper umbrella perfect for spring.

Fold the origami square in half twice to create cross-shaped crease lines.

Next, fold the paper along the cross lines.

Flip it over, fold it in half, then sketch a curved outline on the paper and cut along the line with scissors.

When you open it, it will be a cherry blossom shape; now we’ll form it into an umbrella.

After a quick check, adjust the mountain and valley folds of the petals and remake them.

Match each petal’s mountain fold to a valley fold, and repeat this fold a total of five times.

Using a bamboo skewer, pinch the mountain folds together and define the valley crease lines.

Carefully shape the umbrella portion, make a hole in the center, insert and pass a stick through, then wrap masking tape around the tip to finish.

The method is simple, and let’s make an umbrella that will brighten even a gloomy, rainy day.

For the umbrella part, prepare one sheet of origami paper and form the umbrella shape while creasing as you go.

As you puff up the triangular sections, squash-fold them, then fold in the tip of the triangle.

For the handle, roll the origami paper tightly to make it firm; this will give you a sturdy, reliable handle.

Finally, glue the handle to the umbrella and you’re done.

Using patterned origami paper may make it look even more festive.

Perfect for the rainy season! How to fold an umbrella

[Origami for the Rainy Season] How to Make an Umbrella with Audio Instructions ☆ Origami Umbrella Tutorial – June Decoration
Perfect for the rainy season! How to fold an umbrella

Here’s a super cute way to fold a paper umbrella that’ll make you want to create lots and decorate with them.

Let’s use two 15-cm square sheets of origami paper.

Before you start, take one of the sheets and cut it into two strips, each one-quarter the width (long, narrow strips).

Using the uncut sheet, make the part where the umbrella opens—the canopy.

The pre-cut long strips will be used to make the handle and the shaft.

Although you assemble three separate parts, the steps are very simple, so it’s easy to complete.

It also looks adorable with patterned origami, so try making it with different papers!

An origami umbrella that can open and close!

This is an origami umbrella that opens and closes realistically.

Fold a 15 cm square sheet of origami paper in half twice so it becomes a smaller square, then fold the pocketed part into a triangle.

Fold each of the two short sides along the central crease, then open along the creases and flatten.

After opening all four sections, tuck the corners inward.

Make the same piece with origami that’s one-quarter the size, and use a long, narrow strip of origami to make the umbrella handle.

Combine the three parts, and you’ll have an umbrella that opens and closes.

Moving models may seem difficult to make, but they’re actually very easy—why not give it a try?
