Origami Mini Book

Supplies & 1st Folds
IMPORTANT!!! FOLLOW THE PICTURES!!! YOU WILL BE LOST WITHOUT THEM!!!

a. Find yourself some origami paper. You dont have to have it, but it'll make your life a whole lot easier. The thinner the better, although this can be done with printer paper. I used 8 & 1/2" square paper from Michaels or Hobby Lobby. You are looking for the kind with color or patternes on one side and white on the other.

b. Lay the paper white-side up. This will be the pages' color in the book. Make 3 valley folds (so it makes a valley if viewed from the side) to divide the paper in 4.

c. Make 4 mountian folds between each fold you made in b. this will divide the paper into 8ths.

d. Turn the paper 90 degrees so the folds you just made are horizontal. Make 2 valley folds, dividing the paper into thirds.

e. make 3 mountian folds, each between the folds you made in d. you should now have it divided into 6 sections.

f. you should have a total of 48 sections. Be sure to leave the paper in the same position as the last picture.
