The origami course of snowflake card

The origami course of Snowflake Card is as follows:

I. Tools/raw materials

Right-angled triangular colored paper

Two. Methods/steps

1. Prepare six right-angled triangular colored papers.

2. Fold the right triangle colored paper in half along the corners, and then unfold it.

3. Fold up along both sides of the crease and fold the upper corner inward.

4. Turn it over, and the corners on both sides are folded to the middle.

5. Turn it over, then fold it in half on both sides, and then fold it in half five times in the same way.

6. After that, you can combine the folded parts.

The origin of origami and the materials used.

First, the origin debate.

There are three theories about the origin of origami: China origin, Japanese origin and Spanish origin. Although these statements are just speculation, as early as the Western Han Dynasty, paper made of hemp and a small amount of ramie fiber appeared in China. It was not until 6 10 that Tan Zheng, a Korean monk, presented papermaking to Shoto Kutaishi, the then Regent.

So many people think that origami originated in China more than 2000 years ago, and then spread to the whole world through Japan.

However, paper was unearthed in the site of the Western Han Dynasty in China, but there was no evidence that origami existed at that time. In Japan, the view that origami began in heian period (about 794- 1 185) is the mainstream, but the earliest record of origami that can be really confirmed by literature is the haiku written by Ihara Xihe, a haiku poet in the Edo era, in 1680.

This haiku refers to an origami work called "The Male Butterfly and the Female Butterfly". In the wedding ceremony, the "male butterfly and female butterfly" hung on the mouth of the hip flask.

Second, the use of materials

1, origami of different colors.

This paper has many colors to choose from. Origami is not limited to monochrome or bicolor. According to what needs to be expressed, colored materials can be used for origami.

2. Double-sided color "origami".

Types are double-sided monochrome or single-sided monochrome, which is convenient for making boxes. Many papers use double-sided double colors, which provides raw materials for the creation of three-dimensional modeling.

3. Halo-colored "origami".

This paper is an optional material for folding morning glory and hamster. The faint "origami" can present a three-dimensional effect under the light, thus increasing the sensory stimulation.

4. The "origami" of the grid.

Cloth origami made of fibers has the same performance as paper, but the feeling of texture is different from that of traditional paper.

5. "origami" with metallic luster.

Gold and silver foil origami has the disadvantage of "easy to wrinkle and difficult to fold", but it has strong plasticity and can produce light reflection and refraction effects.

6. "origami" of printed texture.

Although all plates can be folded, the choice of materials will affect the folding effect and the final appearance of the model.
