So time to make this origami Christmas! If you still can't make the
origami Christmas after this tutoriel you'd better focus on completing about
1000 cranes first.
1. Fold a piece of green construction paper in half, then cut it in half.2. Put the two pieces together, and fold them in half again.
3. Draw half a Christmas tree opposite the fold.
4. Cut along the line - you should get two identical trees.
5. Fold the trees in half, just barely creasing the center line (this is to mark the center of the tree).
6. Cut a slit along the bottom half of the center of one tree and along the top half of the center of the other tree.
7. Slip the two trees together along the slits.
8. Using clear tape, tape the
bottoms and tops together
(pieces of tape on the bottom and at the top make the tree stand up well and stop the slit ends from flopping over).
