DIY Paper Envelopes, How to Make them

Hello Everyone!

Today, I make envelopes. They are made of paper only and when I want thicker paper, I fold the paper and glue it to be thicker. You can also use cardboard. Need to make five envelopes of the same size for this one. Explain with step-by-step pictures and also write with texts.

In the first step, make the envelopes. Measure and make marks on the yellow paper. After drawing lines, remove the unnecessary paper pieces and fold them. Have to glue them where necessary. Draw lines on the edges. Make five envelopes in the same way.

In this step, cut the white paper with 7cm, 26.5cm. This paper is made by folding and gluing to be thicker. Measure and make marks and draw lines on the paper as shown. Measure and draw lines on the 4.5cm square and cut them.

Fold the 2cm squares as wavy shape. Glue the envelopes on the paper. Cut five pieces of blue paper with 6.5cm, 5.5cm and put them inside the envelopes.

In this step, fold and glue the black paper to make a piece of paper. Wrap this piece of paper around the middle of the envelope and glue it. Continue to make a face to put on it.

Cut a circle shape of paper and draw on it as shown. Glue this paper on the black paper and cut as wavy shape around the edge. This is used to decorate the envelope.

I think these envelopes are cute. I really like them after making them. Thank you so much for your reading my post to the end.
