Origami Books

Peace Crane

This origami video builds on what was shown in my square base and bird base videos (shown below… just scroll down), and shows how to make a traditional origami crane.  This is a very popular fold, and probably the one that people ask me for the most often when they find out I do origami… So if you learn this fold, either keep it secret or be prepared to make lots of cranes for friends and family.  On the bright side however, legends say that if nyou can fold 1000 of these, your wishes will come true.

Materials:

  1. One sheet of square paper

Additional Resources:

  • Square Base:  start here!
  • Bird Base:  this is step two
  • A close up of how to fold the head:
