| Text | A heart to place on a glass to indicate the place of a guest, that's a delicate touch.
Perform a series of preparatory folds 1. Prepare a waterbomb base, hold it closed tip upwards. Normally, you should feel a vertical valley fold that runs from the closed tip to the middle of the bottom edge. 2. Bring, using a valley fold from top to bottom, the upper point to the middle of the lower edge. Mark the fold well. 3. Bring, by a valley fold from bottom to top, the closed lower point on the middle of the upper edge. Mark the fold well. Unfold. This is a very important preparatory step which will be useful to us in step 16. 4. Bring, by a valley fold from right to left, the lower right vertex of the upper right flap to the midpoint of the lower edge. Mark the fold well. The upper edge of the triangular flap that we form by this fold is placed along the lower right edge of the point that we folded in step 2. 5. Bring, using a valley fold from left to right, the lower left vertex of the upper left flap to the midpoint of the lower edge. Mark the fold well. The upper edge of the triangular flap that we form by this fold is placed along the lower left edge of the point that we folded in step 2. 6. Flip the fold from right to left. 7. Bring, by a valley fold from right to left, the lower right vertex of the upper right flap to the midpoint of the lower edge. Mark the fold well. The right edge of the triangular flap that we form by this fold is aligned along the right edge of the point that we folded in step 4. 8. Bring, using a valley fold from left to right, the lower left vertex of the upper left flap to the midpoint of the lower edge. Mark the fold well. The left edge of the triangular flap that we form by this fold is aligned along the left edge of the point that we folded in step 5. 9. Unfold back to the waterbomb base, closed tip upwards. 10. Bring, using an oblique valley fold from bottom to top, the lower right point of the upper right flap on the closed point. Mark the fold. Unfold. 11. Bring, using an oblique valley fold from bottom to top, the lower left point of the upper left flap on the closed point. Mark the fold. Unfold. 12. Flip the fold from right to left. 13. Bring, using an oblique valley fold from bottom to top, the lower right point of the upper right flap on the closed point. Mark the fold. Unfold. 15. Bring, using an oblique valley fold from bottom to top, the lower left point of the upper left flap on the closed point. Mark the fold. Unfold. The series of preparation folds is finished. We're going to get down to business! We will use the first horizontal fold encountered going down from the closed point supposed to be upwards. Make the first part of the heart 16. Make a pressed fold using the first horizontal fold encountered going down from the closed point. Close the fold so that you have two flaps on the left and two flaps on the right. You will have to open the base to easily perform this fold. The triangular shape transforms into a trapezoidal shape, with a small horizontal side up. 17. Using the existing horizontal valley fold below the upper short side, tilt the upper flap back. Initially, the folding is 3D. It is recommended to use a finger of the left hand placed in the middle of the edge that is lifted and a finger of the right hand placed in the middle of the edge that remains fixed. The two left and right points of the flap then begin to meet. 18. By pushing on the bottom of each flap, flatten the whole thing. The lower edges meet on a vertical axis. We obtain a 5-sided shape, composed of two symmetrical flaps relative to the vertical axis. A horizontal valley fold bisects the shape. 19. Using the existing horizontal valley fold in the middle of the shape, fold the top flap down. The top of the shape is composed of a horizontal edge followed to the right and left by a small oblique edge. The ends of these oblique sides are joined by a horizontal valley fold. This valley fold forms the upper edge of a rectangular flap of double thickness located below. 20. Bring, using a valley fold from bottom to top, the lower edge (two layers) of the front rectangular flap onto the valley fold which delimits it at the top. We obtain a rectangular flap of double thickness, comprising, on top, two rectangular flaps of single thickness. 21. Bring, by a valley fold from left to right and from top to bottom, the left edge of the rectangular flap to its lower edge. Mark the fold well. Unfold. 22. Bring, by an oblique valley fold from right to left and from top to bottom, the right edge of the rectangular flap on its lower edge. Mark the fold well. Unfold. 21. Pulling from the middle, bring the two single-thickness front flaps backwards as far as possible. In this movement, oblique folds are formed on already existing folds. The bottom of the flap that has just been folded is made up, both on the left and on the right, of a small triangle of double thickness followed by a small square of single thickness. We are going to transform these squares into triangles. 22. Bring, by an oblique valley fold from right to left, the lower right vertex of the small left square of single thickness to the upper left vertex of the same square. 23. Bring, by an oblique valley fold from left to right, the lower left vertex of the small square of simple right thickness to the upper right vertex of the same square. There are now two small triangular points at the bottom of the front flap. 24. Raise the entire flap to the top using the valley fold that is located below the top peak of the overall shape. The characteristic shape of a heart appears on the front. All that remains is to do the same thing on the rear flaps. Redo the folds to form a heart on the back part. 25. Flip the fold from right to left. 26. Using the existing horizontal valley fold below the upper short side, tilt the upper flap backwards. Initially, the folding is 3D. It is recommended to use a finger of the left hand placed in the middle of the edge that is lifted and a finger of the right hand placed in the middle of the edge that remains fixed. The two left and right points of the flap then begin to meet. 27. By pushing on the bottom of each flap, flatten the whole thing. The lower edges meet on a vertical axis. We obtain a 5-sided shape, composed of two symmetrical flaps relative to the vertical axis. A horizontal valley fold bisects the shape. 28. Using the existing horizontal valley fold in the middle of the shape, fold the top flap down. The top of the shape is composed of a horizontal edge followed to the right and left by a small oblique edge. The ends of these oblique sides are joined by a horizontal valley fold. This valley fold forms the upper edge of a rectangular flap of double thickness located below. 29. Bring, using a valley fold from bottom to top, the lower edge (two layers) of the front rectangular flap onto the valley fold which delimits it at the top. We obtain a rectangular flap of double thickness, comprising, on top, two rectangular flaps of single thickness. 30. Bring, by a valley fold from left to right and from top to bottom, the left edge of the rectangular flap to its lower edge. Mark the fold well. Unfold. 31. Bring, using an oblique valley fold from right to left and top to bottom, the right edge of the rectangular flap to its lower edge. Mark the fold well. Unfold. 32. Pulling from the middle, bring the two single-thickness front flaps backwards as far as possible. In this movement, oblique folds are formed on already existing folds. The bottom of the flap that has just been folded is made up, both on the left and on the right, of a small triangle of double thickness followed by a small square of single thickness. We are going to transform these squares into triangles. 33. Bring, by an oblique valley fold from right to left, the lower right vertex of the small left square of single thickness to the upper left vertex of the same square. 34. Bring, by an oblique valley fold from left to right, the lower left vertex of the small square of simple right thickness to the upper right vertex of the same square. There are now two small triangular points at the bottom of the front flap. 35. Pull the entire flap up using the valley fold that is below the top peak of the overall shape. The heart is finished. The tip is split in two parts, but it doesn't matter, on the contrary. Simply attach the heart to a glass using this slot to gently indicate its place to a person. Nice, right? |
