Learn how to create your own personal envelope to send letters or notes in.
Materials:
- Origami Paper or paper of your choosing & a pair of scissors
Step 1: Fold your paper diagonally into a triangle and then fold it in half again to make a smaller triangle
Step 2: Unfold and you will have 4 equal triangle shapes in your paper
Step 3: Fold one corner to the middle, then fold each corner to middle as well
Step 4: Fold the bottom and the top to the middle and then unfold.
Step 5: Fold both sides into the middle and then unfold
Step 6: Open up the triangle and fold the point of the triangle to the middle and fold back up. Do this on both sides.
Step 7: Unfold one of the two triangles left and fold across one side. The point of the triangle should meet the folded part of the other side of the paper.
Step 8: Open up the bottom corner and flatten. This will create a triangle in the corner. Do this to the top corner as well.
Step 9: Take the point that is still there and fold back over to the other side.
Step 10: Take the other side and do the same folds on the other side.
Step 11: Pull the points that you have created gently to create your box

Step 13: Unfold on of the sides
Step 14: Fold the point down toward the middle. Then fold the corners towards the center to create a triangle. Then fold back. Do this to both sides.
