- Step 1: Prepare your paper. Use a square sheet of origami paper. Choose a color or pattern that suits your project. Place the colored side facing up to begin.
- Step 2: Create base creases. Start by folding the paper in half diagonally or horizontally (depending on the diagram) to create a center crease, then unfold. Press firmly with your fingers to ensure sharp, crisp lines.
- Step 3: Follow the diagram. Refer to the dashed lines on the diagram (valley folds and mountain folds) to fold the corners and edges inward or backward. Ensure all edges are aligned precisely.
- Step 4: Shape and finish. Adjust the final corners and edges, gently pulling out hidden folds to add volume or shape to your box. Firmly press all creases one last time to complete your origami.
