Broom origami course

material preparation

A4 paper, scissors, glue

First, fold the paper in half.

Fold A4 paper in half horizontally, and then open it, leaving a midline crease.

Second, make triangles.

In the upper part of the paper, the corners of both sides are folded inward along the crease line to form an isosceles triangle. Make sure that the height of the triangle is equal to the width of the paper. Fold the triangle just made in half again, so that the vertex and the bottom edge coincide. A new crease will be left on the triangle. In the lower part of the paper, make a second isosceles triangle.

Third, unfold the paper.

When the paper is fully unfolded, you should see four equal triangles, two at the top and two at the bottom. Fold the upper and lower parts of the paper in half along the center line, and then fold them in half again. You can get a slender rectangle, which is the broom handle.

Fourth, finish the broom head.

According to your own preferences, trim the edges of the paper into a round or zigzag shape to increase the loveliness of the broom. In order to increase the stability of the broom, some parts of the paper can be glued together. The edges between two triangles can be glued together to strengthen the broom handle.
