Easy Origami Rose

The art of origami is used in preparing various design patterns and shapes of flowers, animals, etc. Making a rose shape is one such paper craft activity that is suitable for children. There are many ways in which a origami paper flower design can be created. The process of learning how to origami a kawasaki rose can be difficult at times. However, the instructions for making a simple paper rose given below, are easy to understand. So, let's understand how to make a simple origami rose.

Easy Origami Rose Instructions

The procedure to make an origami rose in a step by step manner is provided in the paragraphs below. The instructions provided below, not only informs us about how to fold a paper rose, but also provides instructions regarding the preparation of stem.

How to Fold a Simple Origami Rose
To make the upper portion (just the rose), following the simple origami rose folding instructions would prove to be useful.

• For the preparation of paper rose, a red colored square shaped sheet with dimensions, 6 x 6 inches is required.
• Paper should be folded along the central diagonal crease. The fold should be opened to reveal the central crease line.
• In the next step, left and right sides which flank the central crease need to be folded; both the sides need to be aligned with this crease
• Corners of the left and right sides that are aligned to the central crease line should be folded downwards. The entire paper structure should then be flipped.
• Bottom tip of the paper structure should be folded upwards and aligned with the top/index. After making this fold, a triangular upper layer could be seen. A parallel line just above the base of this triangle should form the crease of the next fold. It means that the tip of this triangular should be folded downwards along this parallel line.
• The next few steps are a bit difficult to understand. One should therefore, read the instructions carefully and execute the steps.
• As the tip of triangular shape is folded downwards, one can see an inverted triangle with a flat top. Corners (left and right) of this flat top, should be folded inwards to form creases.
• Both the folds need to be opened and squash folds created out of them. These squash folds form the base of the paper rose structure. Upper tip of the paper structure should be folded downwards slightly. With this step the paper rose is created.

Paper Rose Stem
To prepare this origami rose with stem, one would require a green colored paper that has a square shape. The procedure of making the stem is relatively easy to understand.

• Square shaped green paper should be folded along the central diagonal axis. It forms a crease which is revealed by unfolding the paper.
• Corners of the square on either sides of the crease need to be folded inwards. This step aligns the sides with the central crease.
• Upper portion of the structure should be folded in a manner similar to the earlier step. We are thus left with a diamond shaped paper structure.
• The diamond shaped paper structure should be folded along its longer axis to form a triangular shape.
• The triangular shape is folded at a point, somewhere near the center of the longest side. It creates a shape which resembles the stem of rose. With this step, the process of making a paper rose stem is completed.

The paper rose stem should be placed below the rose to complete the structure. The above instructions helps us understand, how to make a simple origami rose. These easy origami rose instructions can help children to make a nice craft work.
