Origami Mu Letter

Origami Letters
This design is from Andrew Stoker's, Fantastic Folds. He calls it a 'foldelope' because the letter folds into an envelope. One rectangular piece of paper is required to make it.

Origami Letters
I used paper measuring 15 x 20cm that I made from recycled junk mail and potpourri. They smell nice, lavendar, bay leaves...
