3Fold one corner diagonally to the another. Crease the fold.
-
4Take one corner on the creased side and fold it to the other corner on the same side. Crease the sides.
-
5Lift one side of the triangle and open up the triangle so it creates a diamond-like shape. Crease the sides.
-
6Turn over paper and repeat the previous step. Remember to crease the sides.
-
7Turn the diamond-shaped origami paper around so that the opened folds are at the top and the closed corner is at the bottom.
-
8Fold one side of the diamond into the middle. Do the same for the parallel side.
-
9Unfold the kite-shaped origami paper. It should look like a diamond with the open ends at the top.

10Put your index finger into the open end and slightly lift up one of the corners. Fold the side corner inward. Do the same for the parallel side.
-
11Turn the folded origami over and repeat the process on this side as well.
-
12Fold the side of the top of one corner of the kite-shaped origami towards the middle. Do the same for the parallel side, as well as the other three sides.
-
13Lift the top of the kite-shaped origami and fold it downward. Crease the fold. Repeat for all sides.
-
14Flip the origami to the sides that are fully red.
-
15Fold the upper corner to the middle. Create a minor fold, not one that will extend to the side corner. Repeat for the other three sides.
-
16Fold two sides together so that the minor folds are inside and the leaves are at each corner.
-
17Blow into the hole that is at the top of the leaves.

QuestionDo I have to use this kind of paper?Lavender_babylonCommunity AnswerNot really, but it might work better if you do. If you don't have any origami paper, you can usually just use printer paper cut into a square.
-
QuestionCan’t I use cardboard? And if it rips, can I still use it?SarcasmXCommunity AnswerNo, you cannot use cardboard because that will not fold. If it rips a bit, then it should be fine, but if it's larger than about 1/8 of the length of the paper or on any major creases, then you should use another piece of paper.
-
QuestionDo I need one sheet of paper?Community AnswerYes. The paper is green on one side and red on the other. You can also put a red paper and green paper back to back and use that as your paper.
