Origami with virtual star

Origami with virtual star

Origami is a very fun way to learn to make figures and recreate infinities of shapes and figures. In this craft we show you how make a very colorful star and in a simple way. If you follow his steps in detail we can even teach a child to make it, and once you have all the small structures made we can join them. and form this whole figure. Anyway, if the steps that you have detailed below are complicated, you have a demonstrative video of how to do it.

The materials that I have used for this craft are:

  • 8 sheets of different colors
  • cold silicone glue or glue
  • pencil
  • rubber
  • ruler
  • scissors

You can see this craft step by step in the following video:

First step:

We have to have on hand 8 sheets of different colors. We will draw on each one a 10 × 10 cm square and we will cut it out. With the same rule we look for the central point of each square and we mark it with a pencil. This point will serve as a guide to be able to fold the paper. We will fold the part of its corners toward the center.

Second step:

We unfold these corners and we fold the following corners again to the edge where we have made the fold. We place the shape as it was previously and we fold the corners back to the center. We take the whole structure and we fold it in half. We will have the fold as we can see in the last photo.

Third step:

We place all the folds that we have made and we place ourselves with the side that does not have folds. We fold it again with the corners towards the center. We have to have a figure, both in front and behind, as in the photos below.

Fourth step:

We are going back to fold the figure in half, this time towards the center. We do it from all sides so that the folds are marked.

Fifth step:

We open the structure and we try to bend it towards the center. In the end we have to have a figure with both peaks up. We do all these steps with all the colors.

Step Six:

We take one of the faces and we are sticking it with the next face of another color. We are doing it with all of us that we form until we form a whole strip.

Seventh step:

To join the final part I have held the entire structure with a clamp so that it remains well fixed. Between the folds and the gaps that we have left we put glue and join it, so the figure will be much firmer. Now we can only check that the star can be handled doing its various forms.
