Just a bit of fun: since I mentioned “Origami Flower” once, the search term most used to find my blog is just that. I find it quite intriguing and can imagine that people who want to start making origami flowers, are not that interested in my university projects.
So here goes: a guide that tells you how to fold an Origami Flower. For those of you who do not speak Italian, you don’t really need the text. Just remember that a dotted line is a fold, when it’s irregular it folds towards you (like a mountain), if its a regular dotted line it folds away (like a valley).
Use paper that is different on both sides, like in the picture, for a nice effect. If you make a few and stick them on cocktail sticks, using masking tape or colored tape, you can make a bouquet!
Have fun… 😉
And if you are interested in my projects at Eindhoven Technical University, take a look around on my blog and see what I’m up to these days!
I really like this flower. I wonder how long it will take me to figure how to make this.
Hi Rebecca, if you practice with some scrap paper first, you should be able to make a nice flower within half an hour or an hour. Have fun!
I always use my least favorite color of origami paper to practice with. I was able to make the flower the first time – with much thinking,studying and refolding. It was torn and rough looking. So I tried again and it went easier and looked better, but not nice enough. I spend about an hour making the 2. I believe after a few more times it will be presentable. Thank you.
(and I have explored your blog, thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas)
Thank you Rebecca, and have fun with your origami.
i would like it if it was in english
Thanks for your comment Ciarra, I’ll see if I can do something about that.
