Rotate the paper 90 degrees to the side, then fold the left and right corners back to create the tail fin.

Goldfish you can make in 3 minutes

Summer Origami: Easy Goldfish Origami ⭐︎ A simple origami you can fold in 3 minutes [with voice instructions]. Cute goldfish origami – how to fold a goldfish ​⁠@tentenmimi9626

When summer comes, you feel like folding a cool-looking goldfish out of origami, don’t you? This goldfish is simple and takes about three minutes to make, so please give it a try.

The folding method is very similar to the samurai helmet (kabuto).

Instead of folding the horn parts of the kabuto, imagine folding back the part that goes over the head in the opposite direction.

After that, rotate the origami 90 degrees and fold it back the other way, then cut open and spread out the tail section.

Be careful not to cut your hands when using scissors.

Finish by drawing a cute face.

A goldfish you can make by folding six times

Origami easy goldfish folding method/how to make

This goldfish is one of the easiest origami goldfish to make.

Most goldfish origami usually starts by folding into a triangle, but this one is a bit unconventional because it begins with a square fold.

First, fold the paper in half to make a rectangle, then fold it diagonally along the diagonal.

After that, fold down the white section—this will become the tail fin.

Then make a small fold for the head, and it’s already done.

It’s an avant-garde style of origami, almost like a painting by Matisse or Picasso.
