This also makes a great gift for friends. You can even write a letter on it!
Be sure to make clear creases firmly during the folding process. You may need to press down on both sides for each folding step.

Notes

If this is your first time trying it, don’t use the same letter you were planning to write to a friend! Practice on other paper first so that when you fold the letter you have written, you can create a perfect heart shape.
If the paper used is too thin (such as notebook paper or tissue paper), it may be difficult to fold and the folded shape will not look good. If you want to make a heart for someone special to you, spend some money on good quality origami paper.
