Of course, you can make it out of anything, the main thing is to understand the principle based on the proposed schemes. A beautifully designed product that can be used as a greeting card or a themed photo album. A young lady can play with it, imagining it as a wallet or cosmetic bag... Look for new ways to use the product.
So, for work we need:
- a sheet of scrap paper measuring 30.5 x 30.5 cm. It is better to use lightweight or medium-weight paper. Working with cardstock will be difficult. The product will turn out to be unyielding, thick, and may not fold like a book.
- ruler for marking;
- creasing As a crease, you can use a non-sharp awl, a knitting needle or a pen with writing on it, which will not leave a mark on the paper. Although, if you make markings on the inside of the product, then no one will see it until they unfold the organizer and turn it into the original sheet.
We mark the scrap paper according to the chosen pattern.The schemes differ from each other only in the presence of the spine and its width. Listen to the advice: without a spine, according to this pattern, it is better to make the product from the thinnest paper. The thicker the sheet, the larger the spine needs to be provided. This is necessary so that the organizer can fold into a book. These are the diagrams for an organizer with a spine. You already understand that the spine is one or two lines in the middle. This will be our guide when making the product.
We begin folding along lines 5 cm away from the edge and parallel to the spine. We fold the sheet along them, and bend all four corners inward. This side will be the front side.
Then, turn the product 90 degrees and turn it face down.
Along the marked lines, fold the edges of the organizer inward. The sides are folded over with a slight overlap. Tuck excess paper into the resulting pockets.
All that remains is to fold the items along the fold lines of the spine, and the organizer is ready!
This is what organizers made from double-sided paper look like. And these products are made from single-sided sheets.
Fill the organizer with postcards or photos, because the product has 8 pockets! Present it as a gift item.
You can write wishes on the enclosed sheets.
Create and be happy!
