I saw a lot of the cutting corners bookmarks and I remember making those as a kid and loving it!! I saw somewhere a trick to make those same bookmarks but folding them. I love video games so I thought I'd make a Legend of Zelda theme one: The Triforce.

Description

I saw a lot of the cutting corners bookmarks and I remember making those as a kid and loving it!! I saw somewhere a trick to make those same bookmarks but folding them. I love video games so I thought I'd make a Legend of Zelda theme one: The Triforce.

Instructions

  1. Small p6050719 1307281680

    Gather supplies: I used two pieces of origami paper- one yellow and one black glue scissors

  2. Small p6050722 1307281864

    Folded the yellow piece in half diagonally then unfold. Now fold diagonally in the other direction. You should have a X

  3. Small p6050724 1307281888

    With your scissors cut one of the triangles. (We only need 3 for the Triforce >.<)

  4. Small p6050725 1307281934

    Flip the paper over so yellow is facing down. Fold one side down.

  5. Small p6050726 1307281980

    Add glue to the side you just folded down.

  6. Small p6050727 1307282051

    Now glue the other side down. You should now have a triangle with an opening at the bottom.

  7. Small p6050729 1307282121

    Fold your black paper the same way like in Step 2.

  8. Small p6050730 1307282200

    Cut the black paper the same way like in Step 3.

  9. Small p6050731 1307282289

    Now take the triangle you just cut fold in half and then fold in fourths. Cut one triangle out. You should now have a small black triangle.

  10. Small p6050732 1307282353

    Glue the small black triangle upside down on the front of your big yellow triangle.

  11. Small p6050733 1307282420

    Now you're done and have your very own Triforce bookmark!!
