Next, take the wrapper and fold it in half as seen in the image. See! Isn’t wrapping a gum wrapper easy!

Now create a fold to the crease you’ve just made in step 3. We’re getting closer to having out gum wrapper hearts!
Step 5: Fold Other Half To Middle Crease
Take the other half and fold it to the middle, like you did on the other side in step 4.
