This origami bar envelope is a great traditional model with as many uses as you can think of! Think about it... what could be more practical than being able to construct an envelope out of a single sheet of paper, with no scissors or glue? Give it a try, you'll love it!
1. Fold bottom edge to top edge. | 2. Fold top layer in half downwards | 3. Now fold the bottom up to top, and open again. |
4. Fold bottom edge to this crease just made, then fold upwards again. |
5. Fold the top of the paper downwards to the point shown. This point is just above the bottom fold. | 6. Fold the bottom corners in to the bottom fold as shown. |
7. Fold the sides in using the corner triangles as a guide. Open out again. | 8. Using the creases, fold these creases within the rectangles as shown. |
9. Open out the corner triangles and open up the fold along the crease shown. Model should now look like this. |
10. Using existing creases, fold edge inwards and flatten bottom corner triangles as shown. |
11. Fold top back down along existing crease. | 12. Fold edges inwards, bringing corner triangles outward and down as shown. | 13. Tuck corner triangles in on themselves. |
14. Make creases as shown: top corners down to crease. Then open. | 15. Holding the envelope at the points shown, bring this point down and inside the envelope, as shown by the arrows. The creases should guide the way. Flatten model. |
16. You can close the envelope by folding the top down along existing crease and tucking in.Finished Bar Envelope. |
