How to make an envelope


It is very easy to make an envelope:

*Get a piece of any paper you like (fashion catalogue, gift wrapping paper, tapestry.....) but make sure it must be in A4 size.

*Take any old or used envelope that you find in your family´s mail - square or rectangular.
*Open it carefully at the sides and unfold it - this is your model!!
*Draw the form of the original envelope on your paper.
*Cut it out.
*Fold the paper into three parts.
Make sure that Part A and Part B are the same size while Part C is smaller.
Then, draw a one-centimeter margin along both sides of the paper.
*Next, cut out the margin for the Parts A and C only. Fold Part A onto Part B. Then fold the margin of Part B onto Part A.
*Glue the margin.You may also fold in the corners of Part C and cut along the lines to make your envelope have a nicer flap. Look at the drawing for further help!

Wow, congrats! Now you have your own beautiful individual envelope ready!!!
