hello, I'm going to show you how to make a paper origami Crane and
What I'm gonna do different in this tutorial is I'm going to use highlighters to
Emphasize and illustrate each crease so it's just gonna be a little bit easier
step-By-step for and maybe the first time or if you're new to do an origami so first you're gonna need either origami paper or
Printer paper that you can make into a square and which we want to do to do that is basically take
this corner and fold
It down
along that Edge and then take a pair of scissors and
Cut the excess paper off just like that
And then when you open it back up
You have a perfect square, and then this is going to be the first of your fold you're going to want to do
So I'll go ahead and illustrate this one
On the next slide this fold you're going to take the other corner and two
And fold it the other way
Just like that
And then now you want to flip it over
And you're going to fold it now into in half the other way
to basically two rectangles
And then you'll want to do it the other way as well
So now on this side
now have a folds basically going the other way and
Then once you get to this point. You're Gonna want to
Tilt it like that and these two folds right here
It's going to kind of naturally want to come together, and you want to fold along those edges and bring these two points
Inward down to the bottom and then when you do that at the top
Hold those crease down just like that, so then now you have the square basically. They're kind of like four
little triangular flanges coming out, and then you want to always keep the
flaps on the bottom
And then now for the next step
once you get that creased real good if you want to take this corner right here this edge and
Match along the center crease you have right here
basically just fold these in
And then once you do that flip it over and do the same thing on the other side
I'm going to go ahead and illustrate those for you and actually there's one more thing one. So you get those folded on both sides
And the step isn't necessary, but I like to do it as an extra
Step is when you take the top part right here
And give it just a little bit of a crease on top and that'll help help guide a fold later on
Then you want to go ahead and open up all four sides. I'm going to illustrate all these for you
You'll fold their fold and fold
down
Right there and the crease we did
Right on top and so now
Go ahead and illustrate the unit side
fold
Just like that, so you have folded like this
And when you did that also full of the inside which then what you want to do is take this bottom flap?
and push it up and
Crease it right there where this fold is and then on the two inside creases basically fold those in
Crease the bottom and then just kind of let this fall together
into a crease just like that and then flip it over and
Do the same thing and then you're gonna want to take this and Kinda. Just give it a little bit of crease the other way
And open it up now along these two folds right here. Oh
Fold those in and let this all just kind of fall together. Just like that crease it real good
And once you have that you'll see the split part down at the bottom. I'm gonna keep that there and
now what you're going to want to do is take the
Corner Edges and this right here and fold it in to the center. Just like this
get on both sides
It looks just like that
Then fold it up. I'll flip it over and do the same two folds just
Like that so it looks like that
Well, then now you don't want to take
the two flaps
pinch them together
At the same time pinch the other two together, so you're basically just
inverting what you have and
You'll get what looks like this and then from there look I already see a little bit of a crease right here
Go on to fold up
these parts on both sides flip it over fold it up there at the bottom and
then now
Basically invert it again so pinch these two together and pinch the back two together just
Like that so then you'll get this and then down at the bottom fold these over to get your wings
Same thing on the other side
And now you can see you have the wings and the last second last step we want to take these and along this edge
right here, basically just kind of pull them out and
Then pinch it and refold it right along that edge
Same thing on this side
then last step I'm gonna take the four the head basically push this down and
pinch it in
Just like that and there you have it you have a origami Crane
