![]() ![]() This bowl full of hearts project, ended up reminding me what amazing hearts my home is full of. It made me so grateful for my girls, and my sweet husband, and that all the answers to my questions are on-line, and that an old dog can learn some new tricks. haha. ![]() Origami is one of those things that is easier to explain in video tutorials than in writing, so…I had to get brave and try something new.Īnd it raised all those feelings in me that I don’t like. Feelings like…I don’t know what I’m doing. It even made me a little bit grumpy.īut then my YouTube watching 11 year old daughter Paige helped me out…well basically did it for me. And she was really patient, and kind, and encouraging, and sweet. Do the same on the other side.Ĩ.Then fold in the edges of the top four corners just slightly to make the whole shape more heart shaped.ĩ.Lastly you’re going to blow some air with your mouth into the bottom point of the heart to inflate it, while using your finger to gently push down the centre and form the heart shape. ![]() Do the same with the other side.ħ.Next, open up the open edge of the triangle you just created on top, and tuck the piece of paper from underneath into it. Then unfold both of those folds leaving the crease marks.Ħ.Starting with the lower right tip of the paper, fold it to meet up with the crease line you just created, on the middle edge. Do the same on the other side, creasing hard. The whole paper now looks a bit like the roof of a house.ĥ.Working with the top layer of paper, take the bottom middle corner of the triangle on the right side and fold so that the edge lines up with the top triangle edge. Then use that new folded edge as the new bottom of the paper, and fold the paper in half horizontally.ģ.Making sure the open part of the fold is at the top, fold the top right corner to the bottom edge, bottom corner, to form a triangle on one side.Ĥ.Do the same on the other left side with the top left corner folded down to the bottom edge to form a matching triangle on the other side. Fold up the bottom of the paper about 1/4 of an inch. The first step is to fold the paper in half and create a center crease in it, then unfold it.Ģ.Turn the sheet of paper so that it is open with the fold crease line running vertically. You can make a paper origami heart in any size, but to begin with I wouldn’t make it too small or too big. If you’re making this for decor, use any color paper or scrapbook paper that matches your home or party.ġ.To begin our origami heart tutorial, we must begin with a square paper. Cute origami paper would be a really good choice too. You could use any square piece of paper for this project, as long as it’s not too thick, since thicker paper can be difficult to fold precisely. You do need a square to start with, so use a square piece of origami paper, or use any other paper that you first have cut into a square. You can make your hearts as big or small as you like. Some of the book pages were painted with pink watercolours before I folded them, for a little bit of pretty colour. For this project, I made lots and lots of the 3D Origami Hearts out of ![]()
