I have a game session coming up. It seems like I'm getting more players interested in joining in than I expected (the estimate might be around six or seven players).

Anyways, while I have made a DIY battle grid (basically made of 1 inch square grid paper I printed and sheet protectors), I still need to make paper miniatures.

Does anybody know to make paper miniatures?

What I usually do for a paper miniature is take the image I want to use into a picture editor, copy and flip it over so that you have one mirrored over the other.

Like that ^ Make sure to leave some blank space at the characters feet. Print out, fold along the head and fold the blank space below the feet to make a triangle.
I usually tape a penny to the bottom of the blank area to prevent a breeze from blowing stuff around.
Hope that helps.
