The other day I needed to make a quick envelope to go with some gifts and was about to look up a tutorial for it when I thought, surely it can’t be that hard to make. After a little thinking this is what I came up with.
Finished Envelope
First take a square of paper and placing it ‘wrong’ side up, fold it in half corner to corner
Then fold the tip down to the middle
Open the square to reveal the fold lines
Fold the bottom triangle to the middle of the ‘wrong’ side
Next fold two of the corners into the centre
Fold the rectangle back up to meet the fold lines
Fold down the triangle and you will see your envelope form
Ta Daaaa! The finished envelope
You could easily trim the inside flaps and glue them down if you wanted to. I just used a sticker to hold down the triangle once putting contents inside.
lovely! simple and effective
Thank you
