You know that you would like to make an envelope, but you do not know how to begin. An envelope can be purchased, but making your own will definitely make it more personal.

To make your own envelope at home, these are the steps that you have to take:

• Get a sheet of paper that is bigger than what you are going to place inside the envelope.

• Then, you would need to have the right materials to create the envelope properly.

• Fold the paper in half and fold the other half.

• Fold the left corner to meet at the center.

• Repeat with the right corner.

• Fold the bottom corner so that you can reach the dotted line.

• Start folding the bottom left corner.

• Repeat with the other corners until you are able to create something that resembles an envelope.

Take note that there are different methods that are available depending on what type of envelope you want to make.

Envelopes are a convenient way to send letters, bills, and other paper items. They are also useful for keeping birthday cards and invitations until the other person receives them.

Making an envelope is a simple process if you follow these easy steps.

• First, get a paper that’s about twice as large as the envelope you want.

• A standard 8.5 by 11 inches will work well.

• Next, fold the paper evenly. Then, tape together the open left and right sides.

• Next, use tape to securely close the two open edges of the rectangle, leaving the top open.

• The top is where the letter will be placed.

• Next, fold down the top to create a flap. A flap that is about half of an inch will suffice.

• Insert the letter or card.

• Finally, glue the flap to keep your message secure.

• You may also either tape the flap or put a decorative sticker on it.
