This goldfish is relatively easy to fold compared to other goldfish origami.

Because the shape is quite simple, drawing the eyes and scales might make it look more realistic.

To fold it, first make two diagonal folds along the corners.

Then fold the tip slightly, and fold it in half in the perpendicular direction to make a crease there.

Fold the triangular section at the bottom upward.

Finally, fold up the opposite edge from the head to form the tail along that line, and you’re done.

Let’s make it with origami in your favorite colors and patterns! Here’s an idea for a goldfish seen from above.

What you’ll need: one sheet of origami paper, a quarter-size piece of origami paper, and round stickers.

It’s an idea that’s full of cuteness! Use the full sheet to make the goldfish’s body, and the quarter-size piece to make the tail fin.

By gluing them together, you’ll create a goldfish with a three-dimensional look.

Add round sticker eyes and it will look just like a goldfish swimming! Since you can freely choose the colors and patterns of the origami paper, each goldfish will have its own unique personality—and it’s fun just to look at them.

Among origami goldfish, this one is relatively easy to fold.

First, fold the paper in half along the diagonal, then bring the bottom corner up to the center.

After that, the folding method is somewhat similar to making a samurai helmet.

If you use patterned paper with a gradient, it creates a lovely effect.

It looks nice as is, but adding eyes can make it even cuter.

Make goldfish in various colors and stick them on a wall or on light-blue construction paper—they’ll look adorable.
