Make An Origami Scrapbook or Ring Binder

One of the downsides of origami is having an annoying collection of paper creations cluttering up the house, and nothing in particular to do with them!

The majority of the origami models at Activity Village are "flat" and therefore lend themselves to an origami scrapbook or ring binder.

Your child can store their precious work, show it off when they want to, add to the individual pages with drawings, writing, stickers, or other embellishments, and date their models so that they have a record of their achievements and progression.

Our Origami Ring Binder

We used an inexpensive cardboard A4 ring binder to store our origami models, divided into three sections:

First, we hole punched various pieces of colored card for the front of the binder, onto which we stuck our models. Some pages we filled up model by model, as we finished them, dating them and adding one or two comments along the way. Other pages we "themed" - using a dark blue piece of card as a background for our various fish models, and adding some stickers to make it look more interesting. We attached our models to the card with a glue stick.

Second, we added a number of plastic sleeves into which we slipped the origami instructions we had printed out, ready to try.

Third, we used sticky-tape to attach a large envelope to the inside back of the ring binder, in which we store our origami paper safely.
