Origami Instructions

ORIGAMI INSTRUCTIONS

The different origami objects in this website are arranged in such a way that the simpler and easier ones are shown in the beginning, while the more elaborate paper folding ones appear in the subsequent pages. Every step is shown by a numbered figure and should be followed in accordance with the accompanying directions. When dotted lines are shown in the figure representing the origami paper it always means to fold the object and leave it folded, unless otherwise stated. Folding must be accurately done so that corners and edges will meet evenly. Folds should be creased securely to make them stay in place. Usually, it is best to use the pressure of a thumb nail tip to press the fold into place. When the directions indicate that the origami paper is to be folded, creased, and unfolded before proceeding to the next step, the creases which are indicated by a very fine line in the figure are intended to be used as a guide to keep the work accurate, or as a preparation for the next step. A square of paper is used for making almost all of the folded novelties described in this website, we will start with some simple methods for making accurate squares.
To obtain the largest square from any sized piece of paper: Fold on the dotted line by bringing line B on line A.
Cut on line C-C. When unfolded the square is the largest that can be obtained from this piece of paper.
To obtain a square of any desired size: Make a diagonal fold in a piece of paper that is larger in both length and width than the desired square. Fold again on dotted line bringing points A and B together.
Now measure and mark any desired length from point D toward A-B, and use the same length from D toward C. (Line X to X will be the length of a side of the square.)
Cut from point X to X through all folds of the paper. Unfold, and you will have a square of the desired size.
