How To Make

An Origami Blow-Up Box

Start with a square piece of Origami paper.

Fold paper in half to make a diamond shape.

Fold again the opposite way.

Open it up…

Push in on both sides to form a triangle.

Fold up both flaps on one side so they meet in the middle.

Do the same thing to the two flaps on the other side.

Fold in the points so they meet with the line that goes down the middle. (Do this for all 4 points)

This is what it looks like after the points have been folded in.

Pinch one of the points so you create an opening.

Push the flap above the point into the opening so it cannot come out.

Do this to all 4 points!

Turn it so you can see an opening on one of the ends.

Hold it with both hands and blow into the opening.

You have succeeded!!!

You can make them in all sizes and colors, as long as you start with a perfect square.

HAVE FUN!!! Created by F. Zimmerman
