- Step 1: Prepare your paper. Use a square sheet of origami paper. Choose a paper color that suits your project. Place the colored side facing up before you begin.
- Step 2: Make the basic creases. Start by folding the paper in half diagonally or straight (depending on the diagram) to create a center crease, then unfold. Crease firmly to ensure sharp folds.
- Step 3: Observe and fold according to the diagram. Following the dashed lines on the diagram (valley fold, mountain fold), fold the corners and edges of the paper inward or backward, one by one. Pay attention to keeping the paper edges perfectly aligned.
- Step 4: Shape and finish. Adjust the final corners and edges, gently pull out any hidden folds to create volume or shape the piece. Crease all folds one last time.
