How do you make the simplest origami?

Answer 1

BOAT 1. TAKE A PIECE OF WRITING PAPER AND FOLD IT IN HALF. FOLD IT IN HALF AGAIN - TO MAKE A FOLD LINE, AND THEN OPEN UP JUST THAT ONE FOLD. 2. FROM THE TOP CORNERS ON THE FOLDED END, TURN DOWN ONTO THE CENTER FOLD LINE YOU CREATED. YOU NOW HAVE A PYRAMID SHAPE. 3. FOLD UP THE THE BOTTOM OF THE PAPER, EVEN WITH THE BOTTOM OF THE FOLDED CORNERS. 4. TURN OVER AND DO THE SAME TO THE OTHER SIDE - ALMOST LOOKS LIKE A BOAT. (AT THIS STAGE - ONE COUD WEAR IT AS A PARTY HAT, WHICH IS ALSO ORIGAMI.) 5. NOW TAKE THE CENTER PART (WHERE CENTER FOLD LINE IS) ON FRONT AND BACK AND PULL APART. THIS CAUSES THE OUTSIDE CORNERS TO FOLD INSIDE, FORMING A SQUARE. TUCK IN FLAPS, TO LAY NICELY. 6. ON BOTH SIDES, TURN UP BOTTOM (WHERE FLAPS COME TOGETHER), SO YOU PLACE THE BOTTOM TIP TO THE TOP TIP. FOLD AND PRESS DOWN. 7. REPEAT STEP 5. 8. PULL TOP ENDS DOWN. THIS FORMS THE BOAT. PRESS DOWN.
