The 2nd in winter crafting is the origami penguin. And here are some creative ways you can make an origami penguin, from a basic life-like penguin to something entirely off, like the penguin photo frame.
And as usual, there are creative color choices (purple penguin, please), functionalities (penguin gift cover, please), and the drawings (kawaii, please).
What I wanna say loud is that they are quick and easy to make. Wanna try your own colors and customize them? You are good to go. I am feeling so excited to share them, so are you ready?
1. Standing Origami Penguin Birds
Let’s first make this life-like origami penguin, which can stand without any support. The size is actually pretty small, so you can make many in different colors in no time, and can also try other sheet sizes, also.
Play it by making a small slope and sliding these penguins over the belly. Kids won’t resist but want one for themselves.
Quick and simple, I think, you should call your friends to play together. And one more thing, folding is simple. And I say, happy winter.
You’ll need:
- a sheet of paper 21×21 cm/8×8 inches (it’s best to use two-color paper)
- markers

2. Origami Penguin and Other Animal Frames
It’s winter! So, along with the origami penguin frame, also make these polar bear and reindeer photo frames using just some folding, cutting, and drawing.
Each frame has a pattern of wind doodles that are necessary for the appealing texture.
Just make the frame and draw your favorite animal face on the white paper, and your frames will be ready to be displayed in a kid’s room.
This frame will also be a great Christmas present for your friends and family! Even if you try unusual colors, they look great.
We need:
- a sheet of paper 28×14 cm / 11×5.5 inches (or half of any other square sheet of paper)
- paper for the ears
- scissors, glue and markers
3. Origami Penguin Box
Maybe you’re gonna prepare the happiest gift for someone, and it’s winter. Why not make this origami kawaii penguin box craft, so cute and easy to make?
Yup, it’s Christmas around the corner, so make your friends and family members happy by putting chocolates, plushies, or craft supplies in this penguin box.
The size is ample for even large gifts. Explore it in a season other than winter? Make one in pink or blue, and your birthday box or graduate box is ready.
Or ha! You can store your things in it, a decoration seems to me!
We need:
- a sheet of two-color paper 19×19 cm / 7.5×7.5 inches for the box top
- a sheet of two-color paper 19x 24 cm / 7.5×9.5 inches for the box
- a small sheet of paper for the beak and legs
- glue, scissors and marker
