Description A tutorial on how to fold these nifty hearts with wings. Its not too hard and I think the pictures are detailed enough for a beginner to try and tackle it.

Have fun! and let me know if I should make edits!

:: I added arrows to the tutorial so maybe that will help those of you with questions

::note2:: I think most of you who have problems with step 11 are due to that you might not understand "reverse fold" in step 9. When you fold the white over the heart, you create a flap. You're going to fold that white flap back to the original position, BUT fold it behind the heart. To do this, you have to change the diagonal fold at the bottom of the flap so it turns itself inside out. It reverses itself. The crease goes from \/ to /\ . Hope that helps

::note3:: Thanks ~crimson-ryu for identifying that the model is created by Francis Ow, an origami master from Singapore. He specializes in heart folds and is pretty cool. See his website here: [link]

PLEASE CREDIT this tutorial if you make something with it. That way we all learn and give credit back to Francis Ow, who works really hard on these!

I just used this to make a heart for my mom, who's going through some tough times. I'm sure it'll help cheer her up. Thanks for "documenting" the adorable pattern!

Like when you fold a paper fan? Just fold the paper back and forth.

Hi pandacub, I thought I should let you know that I linked to your tutorial from my blog post about origami hearts:

[link]

I also tried your tutorial, a photos is on the post above, but I will upload to DA soon anyway.

Thanks for this tutorial, its really easy and simple, the wings at the end were a bit tricky but they ended up ok (if not somewhat backwards!)

Thanks again xxx

*Sigh* no matter how hard I try to figure it out I can't seem to get passed 9-11 :C. I can't really tell how the picture in 11 is supposed to be or how I'm supposed to end up with it.

pandacub143 In reply to NHLoveDani [2011-02-17 20:08:10 +0000 UTC]

I always find it easier to do with a friend because you interpret directions differently. Why don't you try that?

NHLoveDani In reply to pandacub143 [2011-02-17 21:24:39 +0000 UTC]

well I did actually figure it out after looking it up and trying to fold it a certain direction, then I realized I could just fold the heart back XD.

silverarrows13 [2010-10-09 19:01:14 +0000 UTC]

... somehow I ended up doing step 13 backwards or something. instead it being \__/ and all that at the bottom, it's like that at the top 0__o

and at the end, the wings looked sorta...dead. 8I It's 13 that really screwed it up, I think... I've read through a lot of the comments, and I still don't really get it. Help??
