Flowers are one of most easiest and popular origami craft usually done by everyone. Lets see how to make a Lotus in the simple way using origami.

Take a colored paper of a similar color as lotus.

square shape

Make a square shape out of it.

folded marks

Fold it diagonally to join two opposite ends of the paper and unfold it, Do the same with other ends too. Now you can see folded marks, which divides the paper into four portions.

triangle shape

Next, fold the paper so that two portions are folded inwards as shown here. Now you have a triangle shape.

Take one end of the paper and fold it upwards. Do the same with all other three ends also.

small square shape

Now you will get a small square shape with a diagonal cut on both sides. Refold the sides in such a manner that it forms a square shape without cut as shown here.

lotus bud
