⛵ Easy Origami Paper Boat (and Two Hats ▲ As a Bonus)

You will need one A4 piece of paper and obviously a good mood

We start with the simple A4 paper sheet. If you've already created a few boats, you can start with a smaller size to add to your fleet.

We need to fold the paper in half and again in half, as shown in the picture.

At this point, we have our sheet folded twice. In fact, we did the second fold to show where in the middle.

We unfold the paper and place it in a way that the loose ends face down.

The next step is to fold both upper corners diagonally down, as shown in the pictures.

Now, we move to fold the bottom part of the sheet.

Fold it up to the triangle's base created by folding corners in previous steps.

Next, we turn the sheet over to fold the other loose end. Similarly, we fold it up to the base of the triangle.

At this point, we have a little hat.

We take our little triangle hat and "open it" from inside.

Put your hand inside the hat and start opening it.

Now, fold the spare corners of the paper sheet under the other one, as instructed in the picture. It will make the envelope forming smoother.

Now, you can keep "opening" the hat until it forms a flat diamond-like shape.

You should have the loose ends (corners) facing down.

Straighten and flatten it against the table.

Now, flip the bottom corner and fold it up.

Turn the whole structure around, flip and fold the other corner.

You should have another, smaller hat.

At this point, you should have a smaller triangle facing the base down.

Open it from inside, similarly as in the previous step.

It should form an almond-shaped envelope.

When you take a look at the top of it (the upper corner), you should see the boat's sail in it ⛵️

Carefully open the envelope by moving the two upper corners towards the sides.

Open the "sail" by creating some space at the bottom side.

Straighten the whole structure and make some adjustments if needed.

Congratulations captain!

You have your first boat in your fleet! Enjoy!
