Fan-closure paper pouch / LETTER

A good fit for your idea?

Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.

Materials and construction

Plain paper for a first trial, a ruler, scissors and a blunt scoring tool; adult help for internal cuts.

Before making a batch

Measure the 50 mm reference and at least two named panel dimensions.

Assemble an empty plain-paper trial; record closure, seam, clearance and material behavior.

Orientation
Portrait

Two 64 x 91 mm panels, 14 mm bottom joining tab and 8 mm side seam.

Top closure band: 20 mm.

From file to finished page

  1. Cut the net and score the center panel fold, bottom tab hinge and top closure hinge.
  2. Fold the two main panels face to face and glue the 8 mm shaded side seam behind the opposite panel. Keep adhesive out of the pocket.
  3. Fold the 14 mm bottom tab over the opposite panel and glue its shaded area. Leave the top opening free.
  4. Alternate the marked top folds to pleat the narrow band. Bring the pleats together gently and hold them with a separate removable paper clip or loose tie; reopen by releasing it.
  5. Test repeated opening with an expendable, dry paper insert. Support the pouch from underneath; the closure is not a carrying loop.
Printing and use notes

Nominal drawing dimensions are not a tested usable-capacity, load, mailing, food-contact or archival specification.

Do not place valuable, wet, hot or breakable items in an unreviewed paper prototype.
