What are the most popular things to make with origami?

the easiest flower to make from origami is the rose... 1.take a regular sized piece of paper. 2. fold it in half. 3. fold it into thirds. 4.color one forth green then color the rest of the fourths red. 5.cut the lines. 6.tape them together making a long strip. (make sure that the green is on the end.) 7.turn strip over and roll the green making the stem. 8.leave about an inch of space of white piece of strip from the right of the stem and then take the leftover strip and fold it down towards the bottom of the stem. 9.put finger on the top of the stem holding the stem down, then take the rest of the strip back to the right then fold down and rotate around the stem (keep folding it down as you go around) 10. that might be tricky at first but practice makes perfect, and once your done tape the leftovers back to the flower. hope I helped answer your question! :)

How do you make a simple origami cube?

1. Cut a perfect square out of a piece of typing, wrapping or construction paper. 2. Fold the square diagonal in a triangle. Open the triangle again and lay flat. 3. Fold the first corner to the middle line created by the folding and fold again back to the original position. 4. Repeat the same step on the other side across from the first point and open again. 5. Fold the first side now to the new line created by the folding of the opposite side and open again. 6. Do the same step from the other side as well and open again. 7. Now fold both corners in to the next folded line. As you see, you now have a total of 7 folds in the same direction once the paper is opened and laying flat on the table. 8. Repeat now the same steps from the other 2 sides of the paper. This will create now a "checkerboard" pattern on your paper. 9. You will now cut on 2 opposite sides in by 2 folds. That is a total of 4 cuts. Use the picture as a reference. This is a example of the first side after being cut. The same gets done now to the other side. 10. Fold the 2 flaps up and crease and lay them flat again. 11. Turn your work so that the other 2 sides are in front of you. Now fold the point in, fold again and fold again until your side reaches the point where the 2 other sides were cut. 12. This is now how it looks on the one side. Do the same to the other side as well. 13. Fold now the "side walls" in on these 2 turned pieces and hold in place. 14. The box looks now as if it has 4 walls. When done correctly, the center floor is only a 2x2 square area. 15. This is a view from the top looking inside of the box. 16. Now the 2 flaps created in step 10 get folded in. They will fold over these side walls and then the last point will be laying in the box. See the picture above. 17. Do the same to the other flap. 18. This is now how the finished piece looks. For a lid, you do the same steps as above. Cut the square slightly larger than this particular size so that the lid fits comfortably over the bottom piece. 19. The finished box from the top side.

How do you fold a paper in to a brochure?

This is incredibly user friendly. It walks you through each step, allows you to upload photos for your brochure (even ones you created in "Paint") and allows you to save to your email (sorry, no way to save it directly to your computer). There is no cost. I just made a wonderful three fold brochure. Enjoy! Follow the link to mybrochuremaker.com

---------------

Another way to answer to your question would be to help you gain the needed knowledge in order to understand the rules of creating a brochure.

A trifold brochure actually has 2 "spines" on which the brochure is folded. So the one sheet of paper gets two folds.

One of the folds will end up being "hidden" when the trifold brochure is closed.

That edge of the flap of the brochure that remains hidden needs to be a little bit far away from the other fold in the brochure. (if the flap went too deep inside, the other fold wold be disturbed). So make sure that the flap stays about 1/8" away of the other fold.

In short: to get a brochure designed correctly, two of the 3 panels should be the same width, while the third one (which is the one that will fold hidden) must be 1/8" shorter.

In addition you have the issue of the bleed. If you plan to have the images in your brochure go to the edge of the paper you'll need to make your artwork to bleed.

Here are a couple of links that will help you understand the bleed.

How do you make an origami orchid?

Start with a "Square Base." http://www.origami-instructions.com/images/square-base/thumbnails/origami-square-base-video.wmv

Position the square so the opening is at the top. Now fold the left and right corners to the center and unfold to make crease lines. Now fold the left and right corners to the crease lines you just made. Then fold on the crease line WITH the right and left corners to make two trapezoids. Flip over and repeat on other side.

Now fold the lower edges to the centerline.

Hold the bottom (closed) part of the square and insert your fingers in the top. Ta-da!
