Hi Hive DIY friends

Today I want to make another craft from a piece of origami paper, what I will make today is a Dragonfly.

Dragonflies themselves are unique animals that I really like because since I was little I really liked seeing dragonflies flying near my house, we used to see dragonflies as small helicopters because dragonflies themselves are animals that inspired aviation engineers when making helicopters.

Here is a tutorial on how to make a dragonfly from a piece of origami paper.

First, fold the origami paper in half into a triangle, then reopen the origami paper and now fold the origami paper once again into a triangle from the opposite direction.

After that, reopen the origami paper and now turn the paper over, then turn the origami paper over and now fold the origami paper in half, then reopen the origami paper and now fold the origami paper once again into two parts from the opposite direction.

Then open the origami paper and now the origami paper looks like it has a lot of line patterns in the middle, then fold the right and left sides of the origami paper towards the middle so that the shape of the origami paper becomes like the picture below.

I deliberately chose the pink color on this origami paper so that many children like it and also so that the origami dragonfly looks more beautiful.
