Basics of hand-made origami, illustrations of how to make octagonal paper that is often used.
First, fold the square paper diagonally, as shown in the figure. After this diagonal folding is completed, unfold the paper. At this time, we will see the diagonal crease pattern as shown in the picture.
Then based on the diagonal crease in the previous step, fold the four corners of the paper toward the middle point of the paper, that is, perform the origami operation as shown in the picture. After completing the folding, unfold the origami model. The crease pattern we see at this time is as shown in the picture, enclosing a square structure.
Then fold the triangular structure formed on the four corners of the previous step with staggered creases as shown in the figure. After the staggered crease folding is completed, we will use a crease shape in the middle of the triangle.form an intersection. This ultimately creates an intersection at each of the four corners of the paper.
You can see that now including the intersections on the four sides and the intersections formed after the previous step of folding, there will be a total of 8 intersections, and the shape included by these eight intersections is the octagon paper style we need , at this time you need to use scissors to cut off the excess part.
