What You Will Learn?

  • Transforming a sheet of paper into a work of art is a fulfilling and meditative art form that's been practiced for over 1,000 years..
  • This course guides you through the basics of origami while you learn how to fold 15 different traditional origamis. These range in difficulty and style including a heart, house, piano, drinking cup, cicada, samurai helmet, camellia, butterfly, church, pajarita, lover's knot, tato, yakko-san, pants, and crane. You don't need any previous knowledge of origami to fold these! All you need are a few sheets of paper..
  • What You'll Learn.
  • At the end of this course, you'll have some awesome origami skills to impress your friends! We start by going over the different types of paper that can be used to fold these. There are many different options for you, and most likely you already have some lying around the house. We then jump right into folding some boxes, but don't worry: we start out very simple. Every time we encounter a new type of fold, I thoroughly explain step-by-step how it's performed and fold it slow enough so it's easy to follow. Each traditional origami we fold gets progressively more difficult so you can hone your skill, accomplish new challenges, and have fun..
  • This course is part of a larger series on origami basics that I have released. These courses cover how to fold animals, sea animals, flowers, birds, action models, and much more. Make sure to click 'follow' so you don't miss any videos! I'm excited to share my passion for origami with you and will answer any questions you have along the way..
