ORIGAMI CACTUS
This is how to fold a cactus-in-a-pot out of a paper which is green on
one side
and light brown on the other side.
Step 1:
Make
a valley-fold over this line.



Step 6:
You've
made all prefolded lines now, but many of them are in the wrong
direction. Start making a valley-fold on the left. Make a
mountain-fold over the line next to this first line. Continue making
valley- and mountain-folds until the folding line completely on the
right in this picture.
Step 5:
Unfold
the model.
Step 2:
Make
a valley-fold over this line. Fold over both layers of the model.
Step 4:
And
fold the model one more time in half over this line.

Step 3:
Make
a valley-fold over this line. Make this fold over all layers of the
model.

Step 10:
Fold
the piece above the purple line downwards by making a valley-fold
over this purple line.


Step 8:
Unfold
the model again. Then, turn the paper, with the green side above.
Step 9:
Fold
the piece below the purple line upwards by making a valley-fold over
this purple line.
Step 7:
Here
a part of the folds from step 6 is already done.

Step 16:
Make
the folding lines of the green part sharper. These lines are already
prefolded in step 1 to 8.
Step 15:
Press
the end indicated by the arrow a little further in the opening of
the other end (In the direction of this arrow).
Step 12:
Fold
the piece below the purple line upwards by making a valley-fold over
this purple line.
Step 11:
Fold
the piece below the purple line upwards by making a valley-fold over
this purple line. Make this fold over the upper layer of paper only.
Step 14:
Hold
the model the same as I do in this picture. Insert the corner
indicated by the arrow below in the opening at the upper arrow. Make
sure that the folding lines of both ends fit together well.



Step 13:
Roll
up the model.


Step 17:
Press
the 2 layers of paper at the large arrow against each other and lock
them together by making a mountain-fold over the short white line.
Make this fold over both layers of paper. Make the same fold on the
corners indicated by the small arrows.
DONE!
