Origami hearts are a sweet and creative way to show love. Whether for Valentine’s Day, a wedding, or a heartfelt note, these folded hearts add a personal touch. Best of all, they’re easy to make with just a square sheet of paper — no glue or scissors needed.
What You’ll Need
-
1 square sheet of red or pink paper (15 × 15 cm)
-
A flat surface
-
A little patience and love 💕
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Fold the Paper in Half
Start with the colored side down. Fold the square in half vertically, then unfold.
Step 2: Make a Cross Crease
Fold the paper in half horizontally and unfold again, forming a “+” shape.
Step 3: Fold Diagonally
Now fold diagonally both ways to create an “X” crease. Unfold the paper completely.
Step 4: Create the Heart Shape
Bring the top corner down to the center. Fold the left and right corners inward to form a diamond-like shape. Then, fold the upper triangles down slightly to round the top of the heart.
Step 5: Final Touch
Turn it over — your origami heart is complete! Add it to a greeting card, a love note, or a Valentine’s gift box.
