want to fold an A4 piece of paper into an envelope? you should

here is a design I mocked up

shamelessly stole the idea from https://pigeonposted.com/

maybe I will blog about this

origami instructions for creating an envelope

start with a vertical A4 page. all folds are towards the viewer.

image 1:
1. fold top right corner to midpoint of left edge
2. fold with fold-line running from left edge midpoint to bottom edge midpoint

image 2:
1. fold bottom right corner up into gap where it will fit

image 3:
1. rotate paper clockwise by around 30 degrees
2. fold (new) bottom edge up so that left corner joins the top leftmost corner
3. fold topmost corner over the previous fold

image 4:
1. fold topmost corner which now sticks above small rectangle over the rectangle

image 5:
1. an envelope contruction, with address, and stamp over the flap holding it together
