One sheet of origami! Cosmos origamiNEW!

[1 Sheet of Origami] Easy Cosmos Origami Instructions / How To Make an Origami Cosmos

Since you can easily make it with a single sheet of origami paper, let’s create cosmos flowers in various colors to brighten up your room! First, with the colored side of the origami facing inward, crease diagonally to form an X.

With the white side facing up, make vertical and horizontal creases to form a cross.

Use the creases to collapse into a square base, then on one side, fold the three corners toward the center to make creases.

Open it along the creases so it extends vertically, and fold it down.

On the reverse side, repeat up to the step of opening it vertically, then spread it left and right and fold it flat.

Make small cuts to create the cosmos flower’s characteristic angular petals.

Finally, stick a yellow round seal in the center, and you’re done!

It’s also a great idea to make dandelion fluff and display it together with the dandelion pieces.

If you use them as a wall decoration, they’ll create a lovely atmosphere indoors.

Seeing the displayed dandelions and fluff may bring back memories for some seniors—of their childhood or moments with family.

clover

Origami Easy! How to Fold a Four-Leaf Clover Step by Step [Tutorial]

Let’s make a four-leaf clover—symbol of happiness—out of origami.

We’ll use diagonal creases to create a shape that pops out in four directions.

It’s important not only to fold but also to use reverse folds so the layers lock together firmly.

Then, reinforce each protruding section and round it to resemble leaves, and your clover is complete.

Since the clover takes shape through repeated fine steps, being mindful of your fingertip movements will help achieve a more three-dimensional finish.

Clover and a VaseNEW!

Easy Origami: How to Fold a Clover and a Vase

These cute creations are perfect for the colorful spring season.

Prepare origami in your favorite colors and make a four-leaf clover and a vase.

The four-leaf clover is made from a single sheet of origami paper.

If you make several in different sizes and colors, they’ll give a bright, festive impression.

The leaves have a three-dimensional finish, so they look striking.

For the clover’s stem, roll a strip of origami paper thinly, flatten it, and attach it.

Place the clovers in an origami vase shaped with a bit of volume, and display them at home.

If you like, using puffy stickers to create little insects and sticking them on is also recommended.
