This is an easy step by step guide to make an origami tulip. It can be done in less than 10 minutes using just your hands.

Steps

  1. Fold a piece of paper into a square.
  2. Fold your square diagonally so it is a triangle. The longest side should be facing you.
  3. Fold your triangle in half and then open it. You just want to make a crease/guide for the middle.
  4. Fold the left and right points of the triangle to the middle. You'll end up with a square.
  5. Pull the left and right flaps across the middle, so they are overlapping one another. One side should be exactly on top of the other.
  6. Turn it over. Fold up the bottom of your paper about half an inch for the base.
  7. Turn it back over. Voila! Your very own tulip.
