Supplies (find them at your nearest craft shop):
- origami paper R78/24 sheets
- glue R50/100ml
- photo frame R190/300 x 500mm
- double-sided tape R30/18mm
Steps:
- Fold the origami paper up and down, left and right.
-
Open the paper again and fold left and right into the centre. Keep it there.
-
Fold the top and bottom into the middle and fold the top down.
-
Fold the bottom up in the same way.
-
Fold the bottom part to the left and right according to the crease.
-
Similarly, fold the upper part to the left and right according to the crease.
-
Fold in the top and bottom corners
-
Fold the upper right and the lower left so that they widen.
-
Fold the top and bottom so that the front is a solid.
-
Push in the left and right corners and the centre of the 3D part
-
To complete the 3D heart, tuck in the folds at the bottom so that they fold over one another and stay in place.
-
Then glue the open sides of the heart. If you’d like to scatter the hearts around, then this is the last step.
- If you’d like to arrange the hearts on a photo frame then take the empty frame with a backing and use double-sided tape to attach the hearts to the frame in an arrangement of your choice.
- There you have it!
