Origami Hawaiian Shirt

 

Here’s a little picture tutorial to make the shirt

 

Start with a piece of designer series paper 7 ¼” x 6”

Score at 1 ½” and 4 ½” on the 6” side

Turn and score at the top at ¾”

Fold each score line to the inside

Fold on the ¾” score line to the back

Turn it over and fold to the inside as shown in picture.  I used my bone folder and creased along the score line to make it more “bendable”

Measure up about 2 5/8” and fold from that point to the outside

Now fold up at this point and tuck the shirt under the collar

I added the Designer Elements as buttons

Adhere to card front – done!!  Easy Peasy!!

Here’s a couple more samples using different pieces of the designer series paper

And here is another version – bigger shirt and not on a card base

And you can make it into a gift card holder

Same directions for the smaller shirt, but you will start with a piece that is 10” x 6”

Score at 1 ½” and 4 ½” and ¾” at the top

Fold up the bottom at approximately 3 ¼”

I used the Arts & Crafts Dies to make the buttons for these shirts!
