Step 10Fold the bottom edge closed
For this step, you will need your newly folded paper parallelogram.
The way to form the bottom of the bag is to pretend you are wrapping an invisible present. If you have great difficulty with this step, you may choose to build your bag around a small box. However, it shouldn't be too difficult and you'll improve with practice.
Position the paper so that the pre-creased line from Step 3 is at the bottom. Insert one hand inside the bag. Use this hand to steady bag and keep your corners true. Start with the small side nearest to you. Grasp the corner which is flush with the table and pull it towards the center of the bag. When the crease line on the outside paper matches the crease line on the inside paper, fold the edge down. You should have a triangular fold {Picture 2}.
Repeat this process until you have folded in all of the bottom edges. You should be able to see the bag form clearly now.
