hi and welcome to Christine's crafts
0:03
calm today I'm going to show you how to
0:05
make a Pentagon from a square of paper
0:07
really useful for lots of origami
0:09
especially making a five-pointed star
0:12
which is what I'm going to use mine for
0:14
so take your square of paper and fold it
0:18
in half just straight up the middle but
0:22
be careful do all your folds really
0:24
carefully and really accurately and then
0:26
you'll get an accurate Pentagon once
0:29
you've got it folded in half you're
0:32
going to take the left hand bottom
0:33
corner and fold it up to the top so that
0:37
it lines up perfectly get a good crisp
0:40
fold open it back up again and now take
0:44
the top left hand corner and fold it
0:47
down again lining up perfectly along the
0:50
bottom open that up and you're gonna see
0:55
you've got a cross we're now going to
0:58
take the bottom right hand corner and
1:00
take it right to the center of that
1:03
cross and get a nice crisp fold and then
1:08
we're going to take the top of that
1:10
piece and fold it as I'm showing you
1:13
here to line up with that edge perfectly
1:16
it's like you're making a little
1:17
ice-cream cone on the front okay your
1:23
should look like that and now take that
1:25
left hand piece and fold it up so that
1:28
it exactly meets the top piece so you
1:31
can see what I mean there you end up
1:33
with a nice sharp point at the bottom
1:34
and it should look like that turn it
1:39
over make sure all your folds are nice
1:42
and crisp and then fold it so that your
1:45
edges match up perfectly just at that
1:49
moment to make sure it's all perfect
1:51
make sure they're nice and crisp and you
1:54
should look like that now you're going
1:56
to take your scissors and cut along that
1:58
front edge okay the top of the front
2:01
piece of paper get really spare bits
2:06
open it up and you should have a perfect
2:10
Pentagon to make what you want with
2:13
