Fold an origami lotus flower

Fold an origami lotus flower

This origami video tutorial shows how to make a lotus flower out of six separate sheets of paper. The sheets are 4x7cm, but you can use any size proportional to those dimensions (yes, origami and math go hand in hand). There is a way to make a lotus out of just one sheet, but this fold is a little easier and looks better because you can make the petals and leaves different colors.

cool, thanks!
I appreciate that this video is slow enough to see what's actually being done, with a good instructional narrator.
