How to Make an Oragami Crane

This is a super simple and easy thing to make. When I first started to make origami, this was the first thing that I learned to make. This should take no more than 10 minutes to make. As you get more experienced this could take only like 2 minutes.

•Paper 9 ¾ x 9 ¾.
You can have smaller paper as long as it is perfectly square.

First start with the side that you want to be on the outside. Face it like a diamond. Fold it in half in both directions. Flip the paper over and face it in a square. Fold it in half both ways

Collapse by bringing all the sides together.

You are going to fold the outer edges of the top layer on the right side to the crease. Do the same thing on the other side. Flip the model over and repeat the steps.

Fold the top of the model to make a crease right above where the sides meet. Unfold. Turn the paper over and repeat this on the other side. Unfold this as well.

Make an inverse fold by bringing out the side points and bringing them inside of the model make sure to push it down so it lays flat. Flip over the model. Repeat this on the other side.

Lift the bottom and top flaps up. Fold the model in two different halves. Bring up the bottom of the fold until you have all of the points facing up. Fold half of it back down. Repeat this on the other side. Then fold down half of the front of the crane. You now finished the crane. If you pull the head and the tail the wings will flap.
