Make a Petal Fold Book

July 8, 2020

Learn how to make a petal fold book or a petal book with ³Ô¹ÏÍ·Ìõ middle school and Continuing Education instructors Colin Urbina BB ’11 and Erin Fletcher BB ’12.

This fun shape has “petals” which are folded and glued together, and unfolds looking like a flower or an accordion. Give yours as many or as few petals as you like!

You’ll only need a few supplies to make this beautiful book:

  • 5 square sheets of paper (you can use origami paper or any paper cut to square)
  • Glue stick
  • Scrap paper
