When autumn arrives, we love to decorate our windows with our paper-folded autumn foldings, together with tje mini monsters. We add something new to the collection almost every year. This year, we’re making acorns in two sizes: the large ones are made from a single sheet of folding paper, while for the smaller acorns, you simply cut a sheet into four pieces. The folding process is exactly the same—take a look at the photos to see how it’s done. Even our little ones join in and fold along quite neatly! :))

Place the sheet before you.
Fold it in half.
Open up the sheet.
Fold the sheet downwards in half.
Lay open and fold top and bottom toward the center line.
Lay the sheet open before you.
Turn the sheet to the right side.
.Fold top and bottom again to the center line.
Now you see sixteen equal squares.
Cut the sheet in two halves.
Fold the sheet in half and fold the outer corners diagonally.
This will become the acorn's cap in a moment, but for now, set it aside
Fold yellow in 16 squares too.
Fold 2 top squares diagonally.
Fold 2x 4 bottom squares the same.
Both acorn and cap are ready.
Cut off 2 squares.
Fold it twice.
Now you can assemble the acorn.
Glue all loose flaps on the back, glue the cap over the acorn and stick the stems on the back
