Art and Craft

Origami :

Origami is a fun thing to do but requires patience. I’ve only tried it a few times and it was disastrous, but like with all things practice makes perfect.

Base Folds:

Kite Fold: Fold a piece of square paper in half diagonally. Unfold it and rotate so it is a diamond.

Fold the two outer edges inwards to the crease in the middle of the page.
