This origami handbag started as a charming container designed by Hans Werner-Guth. I added handles and made myself a contemporary, fashionable handbag.
It is made from an A-size rectangle, but different rectangles can be used. Clever and a pleasure to fold!
Now it’s time you make it too, take a walk around town and show it off. Cool!

From a square, you make the bag and the handles perfectly, no leftovers!
In the picture below, you see the proportions for the handbag and handles.

I played with some colors too. Which handbag would you choose today?

Following the release of my tiny unimposing triangular box, it is stunning to see all the response and advanced development!
Hi Hans,
You never know how an origami creation will take off! This box is simple, elegant and versatile. It can be folded from different rectangles and it’s easy to fold. No wonder so many people like it!!
Hi Amy,

Hi! I’m wondering if you could make a video for the purse. I simply can’t figure out how to fold it!

They are really great! Excellent idea to make handbags from this triangular box and I really love your collection :)
I tried it today and here is my result.
Hola Leyla
que precioso. Muy lindas.
Leyla que medida es el papel que usastes. es A 4 ?
La proporción es A, pero saqué el rectangulo de un cuadradito de 6×6 inches o 15×15 cm.
Aquí está la proporción
Hola Leyla, están todas hermosas!!! claro que mi favorita es la 4, realizada con nuestros papeles, gracias por utilizarlos en tus origamis. Cariños.
Ese papel de diseños geométricos le da un toque muy moderno a la cartera. Esa es una de mis favoritas!

How beautiful and clever. I love the adaptations. Can’t wait to teach it to my classes. Thanks.
