How do You Make an Origami Envelope?

Start by folding your paper over to create a triangle leaving the lower half of the paper unfolded as shown.

Now, you will fold up one corner of the bottom so that it is even with the bottom of the triangular flap.

Next, you will fold that section of paper over at the edge of the bottom fold as shown.

Now, fold over the other end so that it creates a smaller rectangle envelope shape with a bit of extra overlapping paper.

Now, unfold the paper and flip it over, leaving one corner folded over as shown.

Now, you will fold over the opposite corner.

Once folded, you will then start folding that piece back and forth, starting at the edge close to you and folding in accordion style until the small point is left and folded in the center.

Now, you will fold this entire piece in half vertically to create the envelope shape as shown.

Fold the flap over with the folded origami piece as the envelope flap as shown.

Tape or glue in place as desired before use.
