The charm of origami flowers is that you can enjoy their beauty, much like real blossoms, for a long time.

Hydrangea folded from a single sheetNEW!

How to Fold a Flower [Single-Sheet Fold] Hydrangea Origami

It even looks like a snowflake! Let us introduce a beautiful hydrangea piece.

The most challenging step is probably making the creases.

Once you get past that, all that’s left is folding, so you can move forward with excitement about the final result.

After folding so that five squares are formed, fold the opposite corners of each square into triangles to finish.

It looks like washi origami paper is being used.

Its texture suits the petals perfectly and makes the piece feel a step more refined.

Sixth-dan HydrangeaNEW!

[Origami] Beautiful with a single sheet! Cute 6-layer hydrangea folding tutorial 🌼 Perfect for rainy-season wall decorations and crafts | How to make Paper Hydrangea | 1-sheet origami | Ajisai (Hydrangea) | 折り紙 紫陽花 | 종이접기 수국

Six layers of petals from a single sheet of origami! As you might guess, there are a great many steps.

However, when you finish, you’ll have a beautiful hydrangea and a real sense of accomplishment.

Use 17.5 cm origami paper.

The most important part of this piece is the creasing process.

After that, there are still challenging steps—folding intricately and using tools to shape it—but if your creases aren’t clean, the result will be ruined even if you make it to the end, so take care.

Even the tutorial video is an hour long, so enjoy it without overexerting yourself.

Real carnationNEW!

Is this real!? Simple yet ultra-realistic origami carnations 💐 #MothersDay #Gift #Handmade #EasyHandmade

Fold a 7.5 cm square of origami paper into a triangle three times, then round off the edge with scissors.

Shape this curve into a jagged edge to resemble carnation petals.

Trim a little off the tip to make a hole for the stem, unfold it, and snip evenly spaced cuts along the edge.

You’ll need four of these, so it’s a bit of work, but let’s prepare them.

Next, roll green origami paper from a corner into a tube to make the stem.

Thread the four petal pieces onto this stem, add a leaf, and you’re done.

It’s really easy to make, but it looks so real—it even surprised me!

Rose flowerNEW!

[Origami] A 3D rose you can easily make with a single sheet / How to make a rose flower with origami. #shorts

The final twisting step may take some practice, but I think it’s a clever idea that beautifully recreates a complex rose shape with simple folds.

If you pack them in a gift box, you could even make your own original flower box.

Fold the origami paper in half twice to make a square, then open the pocket section into a triangle and fold it flat.

Fold both corners of the triangle up to meet the top corner, then open out the small triangle you just made into a square and squash it flat.

Next, open the top corners inside the two squares outward to change the faces into the base shape.

Once you’ve folded the other face the same way, fold the top corner down to meet the bottom edge.

Open the lower pocket on both sides so that the bottom edge comes to the very top, and squash it into a triangle.

Flip the paper over, raise the top corner you folded down earlier, and, after spreading the pocketed area with your fingers, pinch the top corner and twist while holding down the base edge.

If you curl the edges of the petals, your rose is complete!

Hydrangea made with origamiNEW!

Origami [Hydrangea] Origami Hydrangea

Here’s an idea for making a single hydrangea by combining parts.

Fold the origami into a triangle, then fold the top corner down to meet the base.

Fold both corners up to the spot where the top corner used to be, and tuck the tips to the back.

Open this section into a square, then fold the top layer of the outer corner inward.

Fold the same corner again into a small triangle toward the inside.

Fold the top and bottom corners of the square to the back to finish one part.

Combine two of these parts to complete the hydrangea.

I thought it would be cute to change the colors for each half or to use patterned origami paper.
