Make Kakitsubata
(１)
Start with folding a big square.
Make a star-shape like this picture.
Then make a bird-base so that a head/tail is connected to a small square.
(２)
This picture is halfway through.
(３)
The bird-base is finished.
(４)
First, fold the head/tail, which is not connected, to the center.
(５)
After folding the head/tail, raise it.
(６)
Fold the other head/tail to the center.
(７)
Then put the paper like this picture.
(８)
Fold the four corners to the center point.
(９)
Make a star-shape like this picture.
(１０)
Then make a bird-base so that the blue lines are changed to wings.
(１１)
This picture is halfway through.
In order to get harder to put pressure on a connecting part,
make a bird-base while putting the head/tail of the big crane between the bird-base.
(１２)
The bird-base is finished.
In order to get harder to put pressure on a connecting part,
fold each of the head/tail to the center and raise the right head/tail while pinching both sides that have been circled.
(１３)
First, fold the right head/tail to the center.
(１４)
After folding the head/tail, raise it.
(１５)
Then fold the left head/tail to the center.
(１６)
Before raising the head/tail, move the small crane in the direction of the arrow.
(１７)
Move the small crane like this picture.
(１８)
Raise the head/tail of the small crane so that the head/tail of the big crane stuck between the left side of the small crane.
(１９)
Make a beak like this picture and spread wings.
(２０)
After spreading wings, it looks like this picture.
(２１)
Next step is raising the head/tail of the big crane.
(２２)
Since a tip of the big crane is connected to a small crane,
make a beak as it is before making creases.
(２３)
After making a beak, it looks like this picture.
Finally, spread wings of the big crane.
(２４)
The back of a small crane would spread like this picture.
If you push the back a little, it will be more beautiful.
(push the parts a little which are shown with the arrows.)
(２５)
After pushing the back a little, it looks like this picture.
