This winter, we're decorating your order with cute, berry-patterned wrapping paper, and our sweet crafting fairy Ise has an idea for you ✨🧚
Don't just throw the paper away, but make cute little trees out of it! They are super pretty and stand up all by themselves 🎄🎄🎄
 |
First, fold the wrapping paper and cut off the excess to get a square. This will give you the first diagonal fold line.
Then fold the paper in half again, then in half again on the other sides, and then in half diagonally again.
|
 |
Now you should have four fold lines in the paper (when you lay it flat)!
|
 |
Now fold the paper diagonally with the colorful outside visible, hold it firmly at the bottom point and fold the "corners" of the triangle from right and left together into small squares.
Now you should have a compact, small square in front of you.
|
 |
Now unfold all the edges of the small square one by one by opening each edge with your thumb, then laying it flat and tracing the newly formed fold lines. |
 |
When you've done that, you'll have a small diamond shape in your hand.
Now cut off the smaller side to get a triangle.
Now make three cuts into the paper on both sides of this triangle (be careful not to cut all the way through, but stop cutting just before the middle).
Now you can fold all the layers into small triangles towards the center along the cuts.
|
 |
Finally, you can stand up your little tree by carefully separating all the layers! TADA! |
We also have a short video here, if you prefer video instructions!
Feeling a bit dizzy from all the folding? We also have another (admittedly very obvious) tip: just reuse our wrapping paper for your gifts and give it a second purpose. 💝
