I Try DIY

So, I’ve done the Pull-Tab Note and Letter-to-Envelope folding tutorials. Here’s another way paper or letter folding tutorial to add to the list. Yes, these were the real things that kept me busy back in the day. Haha!

Start out with a rectangular sheet of paper.

Unfold. Take the bottom corner, and do a dog-ear fold towards the center crease.

Turn the sheet around, and repeat with the opposite corner.

Take one of the corners, and fold towards the center (where the dog-ear folds meet) and tuck under the side folds.
