Most of the origami is probably done for gifting. So, on your next holiday, meet up with friends, not gift with these 6 ways to make origami holiday gifts and gift holders that, in my opinion REALLY CREATIVE.
As there, I have a gift box with face and arms, a candy cane with a small stationery box, and Christmas characters holding greeting cards and small gifts.

Excitedly, these crafts are for Christmas, New Year, Birthdays, and the Among US paper cutouts are for many more types of holidays. I should not be sure when you will gift, all I know is they are easy and really cute and colorful.
1. Smiling Origami Gift Boxes

Let’s make these cute origami gift boxes (yes, cute) for juniors, as they feature paper arms and a marker face, making them nothing less than playmates.
Won’t you want to see someone smile during gift-giving? If yes, then make these gift boxes and put candies, small plushies, or chocolates inside, and they will be delighted.
Actually, they are not so small, so you will also have to be a bit generous while filling them.
Make many with different kawaii eyes, smiles, and colors, and place them on your tables or desks for decoration.
You’ll need:
- a sheet of paper 21×21 cm/8х8 inches for the box
- a sheet of paper 16×16 cm/6×6 inches for the lid
- markers, glue, scissors, and red paper strips for decoration

2. Colorful Origami Gift Socks (Stockings)

Inside these origami socks with a Pusheen cat welcoming card, why not put your next Christmas gift?
And yes, you can make one in five ways (with Christmas tree doodles, fairy lights, stripes, name, and abstract drawing).
And if you don’t get helped but make a few socks, why not make a garland?
My wish is that you make the complete set as one is a quick and quite easy fold. The cat is just so cute.
We need:
- sheet of paper 21×21 cm / 8×8 inches for sock
- a sheet of paper 9×9 cm / 3.5×3.5 inches for a cat
- markers
3. Smiling Origami Candy Gifts

These kawaii origami candies will double as paper boxes, so you can put actual candies inside and then gift them to your friends and family members.
And as I emphasized in “How to Make Origami Boxes“, a box like this one can be easily folded.
What you must find more delightful is how you can put it together from just one paper sheet.
To finish, tie a loop on one side of the candy, and then you can hang it. Make with a patterned sheet or with different colors and say, “How nice it looks.”
We will need:
- A4 sheet (21X30 cm / 8×11.5 inches, preferably thick paper) – for a big candy
or half an A4 sheet (21×15 cm / 8×6 inches) – for a little candy
- glue
-scissors
- Ruler and pencil
- rope or ribbon
4. Candy Cane Gift Holder Origami

Origami candy cane in itself is a gift, and now you can make these origami candy cane boxes that can hold little candy cane candies.
The whole of December is about Christmas, so why not make this a pencil case? I must say how cute it looks with the kawaii face drawing.
Before gifting, you will tie a ribbon, and things will stay tightly closed. Yup, two chocolate bars can fit inside it.
Plus, either in green or red, they look so appealing.
We need:
- a sheet of paper 21×21 cm / 8×8 inches for the lid of the box
- a sheet of paper 20.5×20.5 cm / 7.5×7.5 inches for the inner box
- a small piece of paper for decoration
- markers, glue, and scissors
5. Origami Surprise Gift Holder

Your favorite origami kawaii character wears a Christmas hat and is ready to act like Santa by holding a little gift and a greeting card.
That’s it, this is the craft you need for celebrating Christmas and making kids happy.
It will work as follows: just pull the hat above, and it mystery is solved, your gift is revealed.
Or to suggest something different, you can just write a kind holiday greeting and put it inside this surprise.
We will need:
- a sheet of paper 21×21 cm/7.5х7.5 inches for the envelope head
- a sheet of paper 20×10 cm/7х3.5 inches for the Christmas hat
- markers, scissors, and glue
6. Among Us Little Holiday Gifts

Summer vacations, Christmas, Children’s Day, New Year, Food and Fruit Day, let’s make origami Among Us, for holiday gifts.
AND something makes it special, that is, you can put inside a little birthday or Christmas greeting written in how written in the game.
Each Among Us will wear the hats that are so fun to cut out. But wait, there is no need for glue to fold, isn’t it fun?
