How to fold an origami easy skirt

Fold a white band at the top, slope the sides and pleat it once across the middle. The pleat makes the frilly second tier.

You need: 1 square sheet, pink on one side and white on the other. Easy, 4 steps, about 4 minutes.

Steps

  1. Waistband. Coloured side up, fold the top edge down a little to make a white band.
  2. Slope the sides. Fold both sides behind on slanted lines, from near the middle of the band down to the bottom corners.
  3. Top half behind. Fold the top half behind along a line just below the middle.
  4. And back up. Behind, fold it back up a little lower so it pops up over the top. The skirt now has two tiers.

Ready to twirl!

Draw a little bow on the waistband. Make a paper top to go with it, or dress up a paper doll.
