Envelope making with paper is a simple yet creative DIY activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. To get started, you will need a piece of paper, preferably A4 size or larger, scissors, and some glue or double-sided tape. Begin by folding the paper in half horizontally so that the edges meet and create a crease in the middle. Next, fold the bottom edge of the paper up towards the crease, leaving about 1-2 inches for sealing later.
Once you have folded up the bottom edge, it's time to seal the sides of your envelope. Take one side of the paper and fold it towards the center crease, creating another crease along the edge. Repeat this step with the other side as well. Now that both sides are folded inwards, apply some glue or double-sided tape along these folds to secure them in place.
To complete your DIY envelope, fold down the top flap towards yourself and press firmly along its edges to make sure it stays closed during mailing or storage. Lastly, add any decorative touches you desire such as stickers or stamps to personalize your envelope. With just a few simple steps and minimal materials required, you can easily create custom envelopes for any occasion using just plain paper!
