Prepare three sheets of yellow origami paper.
Fold them in half into a square twice, unfold to make crease lines, then fold each corner toward the central crease twice.
Unfold everything again, open along the creases to form pockets and create four squares.
From both ends of each square, fold toward the middle and unfold, open up and down, then fold again from both ends.
Once all folds are done, fold the whole piece in half, fold it once more, then gently open each section so it becomes a pocket.
Make three of these units, apply glue in the gaps to secure them, and glue the three together to finish.
Use green origami to make leaves and a stem, combine them, and display your creation.
Four sunflowersNEW!
This is a “single-sheet connected origami” project where you make three sunflowers from one sheet of origami paper.
First, crease the yellow origami so it’s divided into 16 equal sections.
Fold it in half horizontally, then in half again, and again—this will easily create 16 equal divisions.
Do the same vertically to make 16 equal divisions in that direction as well.
Make cuts from the center of the paper out to the second crease in each direction, and cut the sheet into four sections.
From there, continue folding to complete the three flowers.
It’s lovely to write a message in the remaining one section.
Draw patterns on each sunflower to create your own original sunflowers!
Quick and cute! Sunflower origamiNEW!
This is an easy sunflower made with 7.5 cm square origami paper and 4 cm square origami paper.
Fold the larger sheet in half horizontally twice, then fold all four corners toward the center.
From the center, fold each corner back at the 2 cm mark and turn it over.
For the smaller sheet, fold it twice to make a triangle, then fold the corners toward the center.
Unfold, and make small folds toward the creases you just made.
Fold the remaining three corners the same way, then stick it onto the center of the larger piece.
Draw a face or sunflower patterns to finish.
It’s very simple, so it’s perfect as a recreational activity for young children up to seniors.
Easy Sunflower OrigamiNEW!
Even young children who are just starting with origami can enjoy this easily! First, fold a yellow piece of origami paper in half into a square twice to make crease lines.
From each corner, fold toward the center along the creases you made.
Then open each folded section outward, leaving a small edge, and the sunflower’s petals are complete.
Next, take green origami paper, fold it once into a triangle and unfold it, then fold both sides toward the center along the crease.
Fold one of the sides toward the center once more, and fold the sharpest tip upward to finish the leaf.
Combine it with the flower you made first and display it!
Very easy! Flat sunflowerNEW!
This is a sunflower you can fold from a single sheet of origami paper, easy enough for children to make.
It’s flat rather than three-dimensional, so it’s perfect for wall decorations.
Prepare a sheet of yellow origami paper, fold it twice to make a small square, then unfold.
Fold all four corners toward the point where the center creases intersect, and make step folds.
This part will become the sunflower’s petals.
Draw a pattern in the center on the front using a pen and a ruler to finish.
Coloring the patterned area brown will make it look even nicer.
Double-sided origami sunflowerNEW!
This sunflower features slightly three-dimensional petals and looks lovely.
For this method, use double-sided origami paper, so please prepare one that’s yellow on one side and brown on the other.
Fold it in half twice so the brown side ends up on the inside, forming a square.
Open it, then fold it twice again to make a triangle.
Fold the four corners toward the center where the creases intersect to create the petals.
Continue folding as you would when making a crane, and you’ll end up with eight petals.
A nice point of this piece is that it’s completed with just one sheet of origami paper.
Be sure to get double-sided paper and give it a try!
Recommended for kids! A sunflower made from a single sheetNEW!
A simple sunflower made from a single sheet of origami paper is great because even small children can make it easily.
How about folding lots of them in different sizes and turning your room into a sunflower field? Fold the yellow origami paper in half twice to make a square.
Fold each of the four corners toward the center where the creases meet, then open them.
Fold the corners toward the creases you just made, and fold them over once more.
Turn it over, fold each of the four corners slightly, and you’ll have a sunflower shaped like a medal.
Draw a pattern in the white center to finish.
