How to fold an origami sun
Fold the corners to the centre, then fold their tips back out so they poke past the edges. Turn it over and you have eight sunny rays around a smiling face.
You need: 1 square sheet, yellow or orange on one side. Easy, 5 steps, about 3 minutes.
Steps
- Crease a diagonal. Fold corner to corner, crease well, then unfold.
- Crease the other diagonal. Repeat with the other two corners. The creases cross at the centre.
- Corners to the centre. Fold all four corners in so their tips meet at the centre.
- Fold the tips back out. Fold each tip back out, a quarter of the way in from the outside edge, so the point sticks out past that edge.
- Turn it over. Flip the sun over. Now it has eight pointy rays.
Good morning, sunshine!
Draw a circle in the middle and a happy face inside it.
