[Origami] Easy-to-fold tulips! A collection of ideas that both children and adults can enjoy (1–10)
Cute in a row! Origami tulipsNEW!
From a diamond shape to a tulip! This is a fun origami idea with a neat transformation.
First, fold the paper into a triangle, then fold the two top layers into triangles and tuck them inside.
Fold the left and right corners the same way.
Next, fold both sides up along the center line to make a diamond shape, flip the paper over, and fold the left and right corners to meet the center line.
Fold the inside of those corners to the center line to create three petals.
Finally, combine it with a stem and leaves made from green origami paper.
You’ll have a poised, beautiful tulip.
Tulip Origami You Can Make with Two Sheets of Origami Paper!NEW!
Here’s an origami tulip idea where valley folds are the key.
First, make creases to divide the paper into a 4×4 grid.
Once the creases are set, place the paper color side up, fold the bottom edge up to meet the topmost crease, then fold it back down at the bottommost crease.
Do the same with the top edge.
Flip the paper over again, turn it vertically, then fold the bottom edge up along the lowest crease.
Pull the left and right corners downward to open the pockets and squash them flat.
Fold both corners into triangles, then fold the remaining center section forward.
Fold the two corners of that section into triangles as well to form three petals.
Make a wrap fold along the top edge to match the crease, then fold the corners to round them off, and you’re done.
Use another sheet of origami paper to make the stem and leaves.
Cute for display! 3D tulipsNEW!
Introducing a tulip idea that results in a striking piece by curving the tips of the petals! After doing the “zabuton fold,” which gathers the corners of the origami to the center, fold it into a triangle twice, squash the pocket that forms, and return the paper to a square.
Fold the corners of the square on both sides to the center line, flip the paper so the folded parts are on the inside, and then fold the bottom edge slightly inward.
Cut the bottom corner of the origami and puff it out from the inside to complete the tulip flower.
Curve the tips of the petals for a three-dimensional finish, attach the stem and leaves, and you’re done.

Perfect for pairing with potted origami too! Cute tulipsNEW!
A tulip that looks cute displayed with a potted plant and can stand on its own.
For the flower, fold the origami into a triangle twice, then fold both sides up to meet the tip at the center to form the base of the flower.
Fold a petal from the center toward the lower right, then open it with your finger and make a squash fold so the petal puffs out.
When overlapping and folding the petals so they cross the center line, the key is to keep an eye on the overall balance.
For the leaves, cut toward the center line with scissors, leaving a narrow stem section, and insert the cut origami into the pocket area.
If you glue the stem section together, you’ll create a stronger stem.
After making squash folds on the leaves to shape them, attach the flower and leaves together to finish.
How to fold a tulip bouquetNEW!
A bouquet of tulips that’s perfect as a handmade gift for someone who’s helped you.
For the flowers, fold the origami into a triangle and make a crease down the center.
Fold the left and right corners diagonally toward the center line to form the petals.
Round off the left and right corners and the flower part is complete.
Using the same folding method, make five flowers, changing the origami colors as you like.
For the leaves, make a center crease and fold the left and right corners toward the center.
The key is to leave a gap at the center and fold into a triangle.
Using the same method, fold eight leaf-and-stem pieces.
Attach the flowers, stems, and leaves together, then wrap them with gift wrapping paper to finish.
It may be appreciated as a heartfelt present.
Mini Tulip OrigamiNEW!
This tulip piece becomes a lovely spring gift if you wrap it.
The flower part is folded the same way as a balloon up to a certain point.
Fold a square sheet using the zabuton fold, then fold it into a triangle twice, squash the pocket to make a square, and fold both corners to meet the center line.
After that, open it from the top so the inside puffs out gently, and it’s complete.
Combine it with a stem rolled into a tube and a leaf made by folding the four edges to the center line, and you’ll have a tulip that looks just like the real thing! In this idea, multiple flowers are made and arranged in a vase, or wrapped as a bouquet to create a gift-like finish.
Even little kids can fold it! Cute tulipNEW!
Tulips are perfect for spring message cards and wall displays.
The method is simple, making it great for children’s fine motor practice.
Prepare two sheets of origami paper and fold them separately for the flower and the leaves.
For the flower, fold the paper in half into a triangle, then hold the left and right corners and fold them up diagonally.
Flip the paper over, fold the tip to round it off, and the flower is complete.
For the leaves, fold the paper into a triangle twice, then fold the tip toward the center.
When shaping the leaves, watch the balance and make them even.
It’s also a great idea to glue the finished leaves and flower together and add a message.
