Got your materials?
Lets make some paper flowers the easy way!
Step 1: Grab two sheets of the same colored origami paper.
Step 2: Fold each paper in half once.
Then in half again.
And then in half again.
You will be folding in a half a total of three times.
Do the same with the other sheet.
(Note: it’s possible for you to always fold it in half again.
Youll just get thinner pleats.
Just check that you do the same number of folds for each sheet. )
Step 3: Unfold your sheets of paper.
Step 4: Now accordion fold each origami sheet.
Use your creases as guidelines.
Step 5: Fold both folded origami sheets in half.
Then, staple them together in the middle.
Step 6: Fold your accordion folded origami in half and trim the ends.
Step 7: Grab your double-sided tape and begin taping the folded origami paper together.
Your flower will soon begin taking shape!
Step 8: Cut out some circles and tape them to the middle of your flowers.
Enjoy your beautiful indoor paper garden!
Tape them to the wall, or hole punch them and string them up to make a lovely springgarland!
