Sarah is on school holidays at the moment and is enjoying some quick crafting. She has mastered making the origami bow to attach to gifts. Origami Bows are very quick to make from just one sheet of origami paper. Once you have mastered the folds, they can be made quickly.
They look great attached to plain white gift boxes or brown paper packages and we now have a stack of pretty bows in our gift wrapping supplies. We plan to make some in Christmas colours to add to gift packages and to hang on the tree as decorations.
You can find the instructions to make the origami bow here. Check out some of our other origami projects.

They are perfect for dressing up a plain gift. It is hard to stop at one!
Lori says
Wow, these came out really nice! I love it when the designs in the paper match at the seams.
Laura says
Oh wow!! You are so right – they would look beautiful on brown kraft boxes!!
I’m picturing a delicate, pretty white/cream paper on the kraft boxes – that could even be incorporated into wedding favors in a rustic chic wedding.
Thanks for sharing!
