Flip it up to where you can see the top. If it looks like the image in the middle you did it right. If it looks like the image on the left then you did it wrong. If you did it wrong then you need to fold opposite then you did on step 4. If you did it right like the image in the middle then just open it up so it looks like the image on the right.
