DIY Origami Photo Stand

August 5, 2016 by Francine Clouden

Display extras of those special photos with a creative twist using these DIY origami photo stands! We often tuck our most cherished snapshots into albums or scrapbooks, but sometimes it’s lovely to keep those memories close—on your desk, shelf, or bedside table where you can see them every day. These origami photo stands are the perfect way to do just that.

With just a few simple folds and your favorite patterned paper, you can turn a plain sheet into a beautiful, functional photo holder. The folding technique is easy to learn, even for beginners, and once you’ve mastered it, you’ll be whipping up these stands in no time.

They’re not only great for displaying pictures, but also perfect for holding mini artworks, motivational quotes, or even name cards at a party or wedding. Customize them to match your home decor or event theme by choosing papers in different colors, prints, and textures.

Best of all, these photo stands can be made in a variety of sizes to suit everything from wallet-sized prints to larger 5x7s. Whether you’re crafting just one or a dozen, this little project adds a personal, handmade touch to how you showcase your memories.
