How to Make a Paper Star

The only things you need are your hands and a 1:1 square sheet of paper.

These are the folds that will be done. If you want a challenge you can try making the star by this step only.

First you need to fold the paper in quarters long ways.

Now you need to fold two corners that are opposite from each other and dog-ear them to the first line.

Do it again to the corners.

Now fold along the first line until it touches the middle line.

Now fold the opposite corners from you did the dog-ear fold until it touches the middle.

Now fold the new corners under the flaps as shown in the picture.

Now fold it back upon itself 3 times until it forms a triangle.

Now go back and do this 11 more times.

Now fold the corners into flaps until it forms a 3 sided pyramid.

Now keep doing this until you are satisfied with how it looks.

Once you get to the end and you only have one more piece, remember, this is only the beginning.

Now that you have finished, you can apply this to make pyramids, cubes, and all sorts of stuff. The only thing that limit you is your imagination.
