Steps
-
Start off with checking if you have the right origami paper. Make sure that the sheet is double sided. Two sheets are shown to represent the front and back.
-
Face the green side towards you.
-
Fold one corner to the other.
-
Crease the end parallel to the corner.
-
Take one corner on the creased side and fold it to the other corner on the same side.
-
Crease the sides.
-
Lift one side of the triangle and open up the triangle so it creates a diamond-like shape.
-
Fold the top of the diamond to the bottom. Crease the sides.
-
Repeat the previous step. Remember to crease the sides.
-
Turn the diamond-shaped origami paper around so that the opened folds are at the top and the closed corner is at the bottom.
-
Fold one side of the diamond into the middle. Do the same for the parallel side.
-
Unfold the kite-shaped origami paper. It should look like a diamond with the open ends at the top.
-
Put your index finger into the open end and slightly lift up one of the corners.
-
Fold the side corner inward. Do the same for the parallel side. Turn the folded origami to the other side and fold the side corners inward.
-
Fold the side of the top of one corner of the kite-shaped origami towards the middle. Do the same for the parallel side, as well as the opposite side.
-
Lift the top of the kite-shaped origami and fold it downward. Crease the fold. Repeat for all sides.
-
Flip the origami to the side that is fully red with black dots.
-
Fold the upper corner to the middle. Create a minor fold, not one that will extend to the side corner. Repeat for the other three sides.
-
Fold two sides together so that the minor folds are inside and the leaves are at each corner.
-
Blow into the hole that is at the top of the leaves.
-
Refer to the image to see the final product.
Tips
- Make sure to crease after every fold.
- Try to blow without spitting on the paper. This is not only gross but will ruin the area around where you blew.
