This pretty origami heart is made from 1 sheet of rectangular paper and is often folded with a dollar bill. These origami hearts have a circular design on the front which can hold a coin or other round object.

Paper Size:

You can use half of a square sheet of paper for this, or use any rectangular size that is at least 2x as long as it is high. The best ratio to use is 1:2.

These lovely origami hearts make great greeting card embellishments, especially on Valentine’s Day, birthdays, weddings or anniversaries.
