Diamond rings are like the bright eyes of a lover, gazing at you affectionately. It is a symbol of pure love and represents the eternal pursuit and loyalty to love.

Since then, diamond rings have become a token of love for lovers and have been passed down to this day.

Sometimes, the paper art works we make need some "colorful diamonds" to embellish them. At this time, it would be great if we could make an origami diamond. Here is a simple origami diamond tutorial for you.

First prepare a square piece of paper.

< br />

Fold the square paper into the style shown in the picture below. I believe everyone can already fold it. It has been mentioned in many tutorials before, so I won’t go into details here. If you don’t know how, you can watch this tutorial: Origami flowers are simple enough and only take 2 minutes

Continue to follow the diagram and lift one corner on the left so that the side edge overlaps the center line

Turn the finished diamond shape over and put the flap into the pocket as shown in the picture. It may be a bit blurry just looking at the picture, but as long as you follow this step, you can see the flap.

The other three flaps are also installed, and you get what is shown in the picture.

At this time, place the four sides at corresponding angles, carefully press the top corner down with your fingers, and pay attention to the coordination of the four sides. It will be done in a moment.
