Origami Peacock

By Sarahcraftylocks

Origami is one of those crafts that make you feel pretty clever as you can make some cool things with just a few folds.

Fold the paper in half across the diagonal and open.

Fold the two side corners in to meet the middle fold.

Fold both side together. The fold line is the same one we made in the first step.

Fold the neck down as pictured.

Then fold the neck up inside.

Fold the top down to the inside to make the head. Looking from the top, or head, this is what the folds look like.

Cut a scalloped shape along the bottom.

Draw on an eye and decorate the tail feathers.
I like how effective it is with just a few details drawn on.

I share origami designs that are quite straight forward, but even so they can still have quite a few steps, so I have made a worksheet that you can print out if you want.
