How to make a portfolio from paper?

Crafts from paper can be different themselves, and if the paper is color, it is still brighter. Let's figure it out today with how to make a paper briefcase yourself.

Nuances of manufacture

So, I would like to start with the fact that make a paper portfolio for the power and schoolboy, if you have all the necessary materials and instructions at hand, so let's understand the process of manufacture.

The expenditure considered is quite simple in design, and on its manufacture you will not spend too much time and forces. The costs of materials will also be minimal, and therefore the process itself will be quite simple.

You can use such a craft for both personal goals and give it to someone or send it to the exhibition. Before the direct manufacturing process, it is necessary to prepare all tedious tools and materials so that the manufacture itself is very fast and timing. Immediately I want to note that together with the paper for making a portfolio, such materials can be used as:

  • velvet
  • the cloth
  • leather
  • suede, etc.

Decorative elements from such materials will give the finished product a special highlight.

A very practical option for the realization of the conceived will be used as the basis of cardboard (sufficiently dense), which perfectly holds the form and at the same time, it is easy to bend and cut.

The form of the future portfolio can also be any, both square and rectangular. Here everything will depend on your preference and fantasy. The design of such a portfolio can also be anyhow:

  • classical
  • stylish launcher
  • children's portfolio
  • suitcase

Today, the popularity portfolios are particularly popular, that is, you can make a portfolio for Halloween in the form of a coffin, for the autumn holiday - in the form of leaf, etc.

Tools and manufacturing process

The basis, as mentioned earlier, will become cardboard or ordinary sheets of paper (on your choice). Also for the process under consideration we will use:

knife (can be ordinary or stationery)

  • clip
  • glue
  • scotch
  • clips
  • stapler
  • tape sticky (as analogous to other adhesive compositions and scotch)
  • pencil
  • eraser
  • ruler

Let's look at the origami version. Such products are obtained very unusual, volume, and it is not difficult to do them. Immediately note that the size of the future product will depend on the size of your paper or cardboard, so here you should decide here. It looks very good for small briefcases from paper, which are also called puppet.

The manufacturing process is as follows:

  • For the product under consideration, you will need 3 album sheets. From which with the help of scissors will need to cut smooth squares.
  • Immediately note. That the color of the sheets can be any, it will all be dependent on your desire and fantasy.
  • One of the sheets fold in half, and we do it twice. You have a square on the surface of which 4 smooth quads are obtained separated by the bends.
  • The edges of each corner need to "lead" to the central part of the square. You have something similar to the envelope in your hands.
  • A similar process to spend again, only already on the smooth side (that is, on the reverse side of the workpiece). Three times folded the corners will need to be on the same side.
  • Now we turn our product, and neatly the angles will need to straighten up, folding them from the edge. After the operations done in the hands you will have a cross.

  • The angles that were raped earlier will need to be wrapped in the opposite direction to get a square.
  • Now the same process should be done with the second sheet, only in the last paragraph it is worth turning over the product and two angle can be gently bent to the central part, and all that remains, just folded twice.
  • The next stage is working with a third sheet. It is necessary to fold it in half, after which it is cut in the collapse.
  • Cut out small and fairly thin strips from the first piece, the second de will need to be folded so that both sides are at the central fold. After that we fold twice, and perpendicular to the bend, which is located in the center.
  • Where the last fold was formed, you will need to bend the corners (they are very small). After the processes produced, it is necessary to decompose the weekly leaf bent and exacerbate these corners in the opposite direction.
  • Now it's time to collect all together, do it how you would make you with a puzzle.

Origami is a very interesting version of the manufacturer of the portfolio, but if it seemed difficult to you, then it is better to start with a banal method of manufacture, which boils down to two functions - cut out and glue.

In this process we will need:

  • Scissors
  • Glue (you can use stapler)

The manufacturing process is simple:

  • We take two pieces of paper, they should be identical to each other, size and shape you choose yourself.

  • Sut a third part from one of them, after which we sample two parts, but only three sides. In the end, you immediately get a portfolio, but it will be completely flat.
  • In order for the product to become more voluminous and looked presented, it is necessary to cut thin stripes so that their magnitude is the same as the parties of the future product. We put the harmonic strips cut earlier and glued them to parts that are the main ones.
  • The protruding side must be folded so that it becomes such as a smaller side. So we made a portfolio with a lid.
  • If you want the finished product to be closed, then you will have to cut 4 strips of the same size, and from half to form the loops to be glued under the lid.
  • Everything is very simple, so it will cope with such a task for everyone who wants.
