To fold this Origami Rose, prepare the following:

  • 1 square sheet of colored craft paper, 30*30cm
  • Paper cutter
  • Pencil
  • Toothpick or skewer to shape the petals in the final step
  • Optional: Ruler and pencil for marking folds if unsure

Now, let’s explore “How to Fold an Origami Rose”!

Step 1: Create Basic Folds and Structure

Start with a square sheet of origami paper.

Fold the paper diagonally across the square.

Continue folding the paper along the centerline to form a rectangle.

Fold the square into four parallel creases along the rectangle’s centerline. (Refer to the image for clarity)

Fold as shown in the image

Create smaller parallel folds at equal intervals along the top line.

Step 2: Shape the Rose

Fold all four corners of the square into the center, forming a smaller square with new creases.

Fold corners into the center, revealing a new smaller square

Starting from the second parallel line, fold inward on all four sides, but do not crease tightly.

Fold one-fourth of each side without creasing

Notice the diagonal creases at the corners; fold each corner along these diagonals in alternating directions.

This forms a square with four flaps.

A square with four flaps

Each flap has an outer crease; unfold and refold the flap along this crease in the opposite direction.

Unfold and refold the flap in the opposite direction

This creates a new square with half-split flaps.

Refold the corners to create creases

Notice the diagonal creases near the flaps; fold each flap inward along these diagonals, forming small triangles, and crease tightly.

Fold to form small triangles

Tuck the first flap into the pocket of the second flap, creating a curved edge. Hold firmly to prevent unfolding.

Tuck the first flap into the second flap’s pocket

Repeat with the remaining flaps.

This forms the basic rose shape with a square base and tightly folded petals.

Fold the four corners of the base inward to create more petal creases.

Fold the outer squares to form petals

Bend the triangle tips outward to shape the curved petals.

Curve the petals outward

Step 3: Final Result

Your finished Origami Rose features four tightly wound petals around a square base.
