This post is an additional post to show you how to make a basic origami bookmark corner. I thought it would be useful for those that do not always wish to see video instructions for making this easy origami bookmark. We then take this basic paper bookmark and turn it into one of our many Corner Bookmark Designs!
Begin by making your basic origami bookmark corner:
- Take your A5 sheet of paper and fold over one corner to create a triangle.
- Cut off the excess and rotate your triangle so the long edge is at the bottom and the right angle faces up.
- Fold the lower right corner up to meet the top right angled corner.
- Repeat for the left side.
- Fold these two back open.
- Flip down ONE of the top sheets and crease.
- Now fold the flaps you created back up and tuck INTO your bookmark.
- Repeat for the other side
- Congratulations, you have just created your basic Origami Corner Bookmark!

These are great – and so easy to make! I made them with a group of students that were visiting the school I work at and they loved them – we kept them really simple as we didn’t have a lot of time, so we just added googly eyes and they drew teeth or patterns on the paper and they looked great! They were all very happy to have something to take home and it didn’t break my budget – thank you for sharing. Sam xx
Oh yes, the simple ones are just as fabulous as the “more decorated ones”. Eyes and teeth all the way 🙂
