Also as a small item holder! Origami box rabbitNEW!
What a cute idea to make the rabbit’s body into a box.
Since the creasing steps are important for this idea, let’s proceed carefully.
First, fold the origami paper in half to make a crease, open it, and then fold it into a triangle twice.
Next, from here, make three evenly spaced creases above and below, parallel to the first crease.
Using these creases and the diagonal creases, fold in the two left corners to make the ears.
On the opposite side, add one more crease parallel to the outside of the diagonal crease and make an inside reverse fold in an M shape.
From here, fold in the sides and finish forming the box shape.
A box with a cute bunny-shaped faceNEW!
Here’s an idea for making a box with a rabbit’s ears standing up.
First, fold the origami paper into a square and a triangle twice each to make creases.
Then do a cushion fold, and using the creases, collapse it into a square with the corners on the outside.
Open the central slit of the square and squash it into a rectangle; repeat on the other side.
Flip layers so that the folded parts end up on the inside, then fold the left and right edges of the revealed face to the center line.
These will be the rabbit’s ears.
Fold the back side the same way, then open it out from the center to complete the box.

Sumikkogurashi, which features a variety of characters, is a heartwarming series known for its gentle expressions and rounded look.
This piece is about recreating those characters with origami.
The basic idea is to reduce sharp corners and shape the paper into a rounded form.
Choose the color of the origami paper to match the character you want to make.
Once the overall shape is done, draw the facial features with a pen—paying careful attention here is a key point for making the finished piece look beautiful.
dinosaur
How about making dinosaurs with origami? Kids love dinosaurs, and these are easy to make and sure to delight them.
A Tyrannosaurus appears in an adorable form.
If you decorate it with felt or beads, you can turn it into a one-of-a-kind original dinosaur.
You can also use the finished dinosaurs for imaginative pretend play and create your own stories.
Give it a try!
Unicorn
Unicorns, though imaginary creatures, are familiar to children because there are lots of cute, character-style goods featuring them.
Let’s make a unicorn face using a single sheet of origami paper.
Once you’ve formed the face and ears, create the unicorn’s mane by making cuts with scissors.
It’s best to draw in parts like the eyes later with a pen.
Try using origami paper in various colors to make a unicorn with a colorful mane!
