How to make a paper crane ♥ :)

Hey guys :) Me again, This is a tutorial on how to make an origami flapping crane. :)
hope you enjoyyy!!

What you will need:
-Paper
-scissors
-creative mind
The idea for the cany wrapper cranes was from SoCraftastic on YouTube, heres her link to her channel: http://www.youtube.com/socraftastic/

Here's a typed step by step, in case you can't watch the video or something ;)

Step 1: If you already have a square piece of paper, skip this step. but if you have a rectangle, then do this step. get your piece of paper, get one of the corners, and fold up, to make a triangle. then cut the excess bit off.

Step 2: unfold, and flip the piece of paper round and fold horizontal and vertically.


Step 3. Lay the paper with the white side up. Bring in the side corners, while bringing the top corner down.

Step 4:With the open side pointing towards the left fold one corner of the square so that the edge is lined up with the center line.

Step 5: Repeat step 4

Step 6: Now turn the piece of paper over, and repeat step 4 

Step 7: Fold the top flap downwards, then unfold.

Step 8: Turn the piece of paper over and fold the same flap the other way

Step 9:Open up one side, Then lay it flat. Lift the top flap on the open end and fold it upwards, bringing in the sides.

Step 10: Then you'll get a long diamond shape. Turn the piece of paper over and repeat step 9.

Step 11: Now to make the head and the tail... Get the top layer, and fold it over. fold one of the bottom pieces up,and  get the layer you just folded, fold it back.                                                                                             

Step 12: Repeat step 11 on the other side.

Step 13: Now to form the head... choose one of the long, top pieces and fold down the corner a little bit. now you have a paper flapping crane :)
