Origami Paper Crafts
Worksheets Crafter: Origami is an ancient Japanese paper-folding art that has gained immense popularity worldwide. One of the most popular origami designs to make is the origami crane, which symbolizes peace and is believed to bring good luck. To make an origami crane paper craft, you will need a square sheet of origami paper. Start by folding the paper in half diagonally, forming a triangle. Then, unfold it and fold it in half diagonally again, but in the opposite direction. Once unfolded, the paper should have two perpendicular creases forming an "X" shape. Next, fold the paper in half horizontally, bringing the bottom corner to meet the top corner. Unfold it, and you should see two creases forming a cross. Following that, fold the paper vertically, bringing the left corner to meet the right corner. Unfold again, and you will have four vertical creases. Finally, fold the paper diagonally from the left corner to the uppermost point of the cross. Repeat on the right side, then bring both sides down and tuck them inside, forming the wings. Lastly, fold the bottom portion up to form the head and neck. With a little practice, you can master the art of making origami crane paper crafts and enjoy creating these beautiful and meaningful creations.
