How to Make an Origami Heart Bookmark


The heart bookmark is very easy to fold. It is also very practical.



Step 1: Take a thin, but long strip of origami paper. It doesn't matter the size, except you need it to be long enough for step 4 and 5. Place it horizontally. I used 15 cm by 4 cm paper.



Step 2:Fold across.


Step:3 Undo step 2.


Step 4:Take the left side and fold it down with the edge of the paper going along with the crease you just made in step 2.


Step 5: Repeat step 4 on the right side. If your folds don't go down pass the triangle paper part you either need longer paper or your paper  needs to be thinner. The length of the should be the same on both sides.


Step 6: Flip your paper upside down.


Step 7: On both flaps fold down a little bit. It doesn't matter that much how far you go down.
Your heart should look like this. Fold both flaps to be the same length.





Step 8:Fold corners back as shown.








Step 9: Flip it over and you're done. Just use it as your bookmark.

Note: you can use tape to hold your bookmark together better.
