Its a fantastic way to dip your toes into the world of paper folding without feeling overwhelmed.

Lets unfold the magic of paper folding and create something beautiful, one fold at a time.

The paper is somewhat thin, and typically comes in squares that are 6 x 6.

The weight of your average origami paper is about 70gsm, just like a lot of printer paper.

For a heart bookmark such as this one, I like to use paper that is a bit thicker.

The paper will be handled frequently and moved on and off of pages.
