I will be showing you how to make a flower. Not sure what kind it is, but I'm pretty sure it's a tulip. Please give me some tips because this is my first Instructable and I'm still in junior high school.

All you need for this Instructable is a piece of regular computer paper and a pen.

All up to here it looks like you are making an origami crane.

if you have ever made a swan the first few steps are the same and actually not as difficult as it looks

Step 7 ends with a "bird base", a fairly common construction in origami.

Nice!!! These are one of my favorite things to make, I haven't in a while so thanks for the reminder :-) The images are a bit unclear, but the video mostly makes it plain. I suggest brighter lighting for future photos and videos, and there are steps that get rushed through in the video that could take a little more time. But what a really good first instructable!

I think that this is either an adaptation of the traditional lily or the traditional iris

An Iris has six petals. The odd ones curl in, the even curl out.

Yeah I am also lost. I am not exactly sure what you mean with 'fold this part in and out.' Maybe it will become clearer if you add more pics to show more steps.

 the folding in and out part has no real part in making the flower. it's just there to help when you pull the "leaf" out in the same step.

this step is kind of hard but I think in the end it'll be worth it

cool flower you got there... the video was a bit confusing though
Keith-Kid says: Dec 23, 2007. 12:28 PM
I like it great! Looks extremely close to mine. I thought someone had already made an instructable about the flower I was gonna make. Extremely close but slightly different.
Tonamel says: Nov 19, 2007. 8:31 PM
I think it's a bit closer to a lily. Nice video, though.
