Cute heart-shaped origami bookmark

Hey guys! For my first tutorial, here's a cute heart-shaped origami bookmark I made.


Here are the steps to make it on your own...

First take a square sheet of paper. The one I've used is checkered on one side.


Fold it in half.

Fold in half once again.

Now open it up and flatten it out.

Fold the bottom of the paper so that the edge meets the crease at the center.

Turn it over.

Bring the bottom corners to meet at the center line.

Turn it over.

Fold it so that the tip goes up to meet the top edge.

Turn it over and you'll see this.

Gently insert your finger into one of the flaps like this...

...And flatten it out like this.

Do the same for the other flap.

Now fold both the corners sticking out so that they form triangles like this.

Fold the tips of the triangles upwards so that they meet the edge.

Now fold one side of the paper inward to meet the center, like this.

Do the same with the other side.

Turn it over, and voila! Your bookmark is ready!
 
You can even use it to mark exactly which line you're on!

Pot painting!

Mom and I got a couple of terracotta vases and decorated them. Here is mine - I painted the vase black and added clay roses, vines and leaves. I then painted the roses and leaves with metallic colours. This is the vase made by my Mom - She drew and painted the background and the designs, and then added stones over the leaves and peacock feathers. Let me know what you think!
