Origami is the Japanese art of folding a piece paper into shapes and objects to create a beautiful design. If you are a fan of origami and would like to create a beautiful artwork, have a look at the video below to make an origami sea turtle. It is a pretty easy origami to make so it’s perfect for new beginners.

All you simply need to do is choose a turtle design and print it using your printer. There are different variants of designs and fun colours to print. There is a small dotted grey outline to cut out from the printed paper to make it into a square design. Follow the instructions in the video to fold the sea turtle. You can print as many as you like and have a collection of those turtles sitting around in your home.

Some useful tips when printing the turtle designs;

You can use any paper and any printer of your choice to print this. We would advise you to not to use special photo paper with a thicker gsm as it may be harder to fold and also you don’t want to use them papers up when you can be using them for other high quality photos like family pictures.

Use an inkjet or laser printer to print the designs. It’s entirely up to you to choose what printer to use to print the designs. If you want to print the designs in really high quality, then use an inkjet printer, for normal decent quality a laser printer will do the job well.

Whether you have a printer that takes ink cartridges or a printer that takes toner cartridges, choose the right type of consumable supplies for your printer to print the designs. If high quality printing is a high priority then use the original manufacturer cartridges to print the designs. If you prefer to save cost then choose the premium compatible ink/toner cartridges for your printer which gives you almost the same quality as the original branded cartridges. For those that high quality does not matter, and wants to save on ink, choose the budget compatible ink or toner cartridges. All the different type of cartridges will give you the end results but quality will slightly vary. Visit our website inkntoneruk.co.uk for more information on compatible cartridges for your printer and you will see how much you will be saving.
