How to Make
Origami
Heart Flowers and Iris Leaves in a Display Stand
With three simple models, you can
make an unlimited variety of gifts and decorations. Just a
few examples:
The model for the four-heart
flower is the same as the single one, just cut differently.
The three models are the Origami
Heart Flower, the Iris Leaf, and the Model Display Stand. (Click a
photo for the folding instructions.)
By
varying the sizes of each, and using different papers, the
possibilities are
endless.
We
used origami paper, color copy
paper, and scrapbook paper with a heart pattern. We sprayed
the red hearts with red glitter.
Have fun mixing and matching!
To surprise
someone with a truly unique card-and-gift-in-one that arrives
by regular mail:
1. Make the display stand and
the other model(s).
2. Disassemble
the display stand and
flatten it.
3. So
that the recipient will know how to
reassemble it, mark the tabs and slots as indicated in the folding
instructions. Print the assembly instructions for
them.
4. Put
the recipient’s address on a sturdy
envelope.
5. Put
the flattened stand, the other model(s), and
instructions in the envelope and mail.
You may need extra postage.
