The Plane
I hate red-eyes, but I would fly all night for you ;)
Cut your paper into a perfect square. Fold over into a triangle and bend the points inwards. Crease down the top point top to create a square pouch.
Paper Pouch
Anyone ready for a quick whiskey shot?
Nothing like a paper hat to get a party started.
Paper Hat
Mini hats are the true keys to someone’s heart.
Went out in your tee and forgot you had a black tie event to go to? Been there, bro. No worries — just DIY it out.
Paper Tie
They call me Bond, James Bond.
I’m going to warn you now. There are a lot of steps to this one, but it is definitely worth it. Fold your square in half both ways and then in a triangle both ways to create four creases on your sheet.
Paper Bowtie
Pinch the center fold to turn it into a smaller diamond shape.
Fold a small triangle on the top, open the square up, and then pinch together. Pinching together will force the folded section to lay on the inside.
Fold the top edges of the diamond over, open up and flatten out the piece.
Cut down the seam of the creases on the backside.
Start folding to create the bowtie.
Cut the bottom diamond and fold to create the ribbon.
Fold the triangles into the center of the bow and trim the bottom ribbons.
Yeah, dude. You did it. We are way impressed.
No one likes a crooked bowtie.
These five folding techniques will win you the date of your dreams.
