Sustainable IPhone / IPod Paper Case (Origami)

I had a problem: I always use papers to jot down my to do lists and didnt have time to type it in my iPod touch so I thought about how to solve that and came up with this Origami Paper Casing. This is the easy version!! Depending on the feedback I will put up the real hard version online or make this one even easier. Have fun and tell me what you think!

Download the pdf:
For US format: "Folding US easy"
For DIN format: "DIN simple"

and cut the rectangle.


Hands On!

Fold it in half

Corner Folding

Now take care about the corners. It takes a little finger tricks to pull it in but it´s easiest if you first fold the two outer edges and then push it in to fold the middle one.

Folding Sides

Unfold the corners again and fold the sides in.

Now the Hard Step

This is the hardest step: You have to kind of curl the corners in. I tried to take pictures of every small step.

Cover

Now fold the cover so that it almost looks like an envelope.

Stick It In!

Almost through! Fold the cover in the hull so it fixes the back part.

IPhone Time!

Pull out your iPhone and try it out! Might be a little tight because i constructed it for iPod touch. So would be happy about feedback how it works with iPhone.

As i said this is the eays version. There is a more harder version in the pipline.


Have fun!
