How To Make An Origami Bookmark

I’ll now share the tutorial so you can make this fun origami unicorn corner bookmark

Step One:

Print and cut out the patterns from the template. Trace and cut out the big square shape on the paper selected for the bookmark.

Step Two:

Place the square paper on a flat surface. Fold the paper into half diagonally.

Step Three:

Hold any one corners of the open ends and fold it downwards, matching the end of the corner with the border line of the straight side.

Notice that there are now 3 triangles along the bottom side of the folded paper.

Step Four:

Grab any one triangles from the side and fold it upwards, matching its open end corner with the corner on the top side (of the folded paper).

Step Five:

Similarly fold the triangle on the other side.

Step Six:

Hold any one of the triangular parts and fold it into half. Tuck the open side of the half fold into the triangular pocket.

Step Seven:

Similarly fold and tuck the other side.

Step Eight:

Select coloured craft papers for the decoration. Trace and cut out patterns from coloured craft papers.

Step Nine:

Make the flowers by gluing together the flower cut outs.

Step Ten:

Also prepare the ear parts and the horn from thick craft papers or card stock papers.

Step Eleven:

Glue the inner ear parts on the outer ear parts.

Step Twelve:

All items ready? Grab them all and let’s craft a unicorn!

Step Thirteen:

Attach the ears and the horn along the closed end’s back side of the folded paper.

Step Fourteen:

Attach the flowers and leaves right below the ears and the horn.

Use a black marker pen to trace the eyes of the unicorn.
