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.

Give it a try!
