How to fold an origami shampoo
Slant the bottom of a teal strip and fold it up behind so it pokes out on top as a white cap, then fold the shoulders and round the bottom.
You need: A 10 x 27 cm strip of paper (cut from the long side of A4). Easy, 4 steps, about 6 minutes.
Steps
- Cap: slant the sides. Coloured side up, standing tall. Fold both long edges of the bottom 15 cm in on a slant, from 12 cm up each side to 1.7 cm from the bottom middle.
- Cap up behind. Fold the slanted part up behind, folding where the slants start. Its white end pokes out over the top: that is the cap.
- Shoulders. Fold the two top corners of the bottle behind on a slant, from 3 cm down each side to the cap. Keep the cap out of it.
- Round the bottom. Fold the two bottom corners behind, about 1 cm each.
Bubble bath time!
Draw a white label with a few bubbles and two lines of writing, and a line across the cap where it flips open.
