Preparation of an origami paper

Recommendation

【Size】
a 26x26cm paper or it is bigger than 26cm.

【Kinds】
・Basic origami paper
・Double sided origami paper
・Washi paper


Draw lines like this picture.
(Divide the paper in five horizontally.)

If you use a 26x26cm paper, the side of each square is 5.2cm.
(26÷5=5.2cm)

After drawing lines, cut the paper on the blue line.

After cutting the paper, it looks like this picture.

Turn the paper over and make creases along the lines that you have drawn.

Make a crease along the line that you have drawn like this picture.

Then make creases along the three other lines that you have drawn as well.

After making creases along the four lines that you have drawn, it looks like this picture.
