For this spring-summer flower, we need pieces of green and yellow paper:

  • For a flower – yellow paper in the shape of a square, 15:15 cm in size;
  • For leaves – two paper green squares 10:10 cm;
  • For the sepals, a green square 5:5 cm or even smaller;
  • For the stem – a strip of cardboard or green paper 15:4 cm.

Dandelion Flower

Prepare a square piece of yellow paper.

On its surface, you need to make several intersecting folds in order to easily fold the basic origami shape — a double triangle. Fold the square into a triangle. Straighten and fold again, connecting the other two corners.

Flip to the other side and fold the square in half to form a rectangle.

Open, direct the horizontal fold inward.

Press the top to the bottom.

Here’s a double triangle.

Point the corners of the top layer up.

Stem

Everything is extremely simple here. Cut out the rectangle.

Fold it several times to form a hard stem. For these purposes, you can also take cardboard of the appropriate color.

Fold the square into a triangle to determine the middle.

Open the paper, and then, for convenience, unfold so that the fold is vertical.

Align the sides of the square with the fold.

Flip over to the other side.

Move the right fold to the center while straightening the side of the paper to the side.

Do similar manipulations on the left.
