Origami Newspaper Pot
This is how to fold a real nice flower pot
out of a newspaper page and a white paper.
Step 1:
I taped
a newspaper page
to a white paper of about 30x40 centimeters. Valley-fold over these
three lines, start with the upper line.
Step 8:
Prefold
the white edge over these lines.
Then push the edges between the arrows against each other, see next
picture.
Step 6:
Unfold
the fold of step 3.
Step 13:
Make
sharper folding lines here.
Step 12:
Make
sharper folding lines on the four edges between the arrows. Tape or
glue them together, if necessary.
Step 11:
Tape
or glue both ends together, see arrow.
Step 10:
Repeat
step 9 three more times, see arrows
Step 9:
Press
the edge indicated by the arrow over the edge on the left of it.
Step 5:
Prefold
the edges to the centerline
