Christmas Origami Instructions: Snowflake (Jared Needle)

[estjoy2004]

I can't get past the first hard part. I've had 5 failures. My waste paper basket is getting full. I love the video and the snowflake on the video, though.

[helixdrago24]

I didn't make a snow flake I made a snowball

[thefamouschic12345]

no entiendo :'(

[300chococat]

31:43 MINUTES!?!?

[Adriano6709]

[DanteDLS]

Thank you for the tutotrial,I enjoy your videos !

[freynz]

HEXAGON

[utube101x]

Your accent is wonderful. Thank you for the fantastic videos.

[SuperKrissy1999]

is this easy... anyone?

[sosyPel]

@SuperKrissy1999 yeah I made this without any problem

[imadada46]

I hate the sound when she fricken swallows

[SallyAma]

Sara, you do an amazing job demonstrating and explaining the procedures. I've produced training videos for years and I would have hired you in a flash!. It appears you are good at ignoring negative comments about the level of detail you provide and length of the videos. Good for you! I learned many of the things you demonstrate years (and years) ago, but had forgotten how to do them. Now I'm teaching them to my grandkids.

[aoi4Jesus]

Wow! You are so great!!! I haven't done much origami yet but i made that snowflake!!! GREAT :D

Thank you!!!!

[Shahbonya]

seems verrrrrrrrry complicated...........

[melcerro23]

I love this snowflake. I wold love to make it for christmas this year, but Im just starting now to make origami. So its to much for me right now!! But I will try it later!!! Thanks for the video

[deryer]

@AdamsSara well, thank you :D I was studying origami for this class and your videos helped me ALOT !

[andreasoccermaster15]

Were did u get the Pacon paper?

[nickydp1322]

YOU KNOW WHATS REALLY COOL!?!? I made 2 snowflakes then put the back sides of each together and interlocked the spokes at the ends; and made one amazing snowflake:D

[Runegarden]

Cummy paper?

[imanka8]

Great!!! Job Girl.......

[deryer]

This is absolutely stunning! Totally worth trying....but is it still origami even if you have to cut the paper to form the hexagon?

[AdamsSara]

@deryer Well, sure! After all, you do have to cut a square before folding it, too, right? It's just more common to get precut squares than it is to get precut hexagons (although that, too, exists).

[coladoleon80]

@deryer

If the shape you need is not a square or a rectangle, and you need to cut the paper into another shape (hexagon or any other) it is not calle origami, but KIRIGAMI (kiri = cut), so AmasSara is wrong when agreeing it is origami too.

[pmielke]

Thank you for posting this video. Originally i looked at the diagrams

and gave up after step 21. Your video spurred me on to finish it.

[AdamsSara]

@pmielke Hehe, I think step 21 made me pause and think for a moment, too. Great to hear this helped you complete the snowflake!

[ETHEREALPAULA]

WOW! THIS SNOWFLAKE VIDEO IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ! AND SO ARE YOU SARAH !

[enzotje123]

ok, so i wanna ask u something: how do u change the thingy name or something at the left of the thingy that says "180 videos"? (btw 180? AWESOME!) cuz i wanna change mine too! thanks in advance!!!

[AdamsSara]

@enzotje123 I think this is a feature that's only available to YouTube Partners.

[enzotje123]

@AdamsSara oh... that's disappointing.... thx for taking the time to awnser my question btw!

[MrEllinas21]

can you use a square?

[AdamsSara]

@MrEllinas21 You can start with a square, cut a hexagon from it, and then follow this video. :) I have a video on how to cut a hexagon from a square or a rectangle.

[MrEllinas21]

@AdamsSara I know this but I demand if can make it with a square?

[AdamsSara]

@MrEllinas21 You can try to make a variation on a square, but it'd obviously only have 4 points, not 6, and look somewhat different. So, in essence, probably a new design. ;)

[zerohdog]

what editing software do you use

[AdamsSara]

@zerohdog Final Cut Express

[Filip49866]

they are really beautiful. but i try it 4 times befor i done it. how old are you? I am 11.

sorry for my bad english i live in austria and i am only 11

[fs1034]

Nice one! Thanks!

[musicalorigamiable]

Hallo nochmal. :-)

Ich würde mal gerne wissen, ob es möglich wäre, dass du ein Video von dem Doppeldecker von Marc Kirschenbaum machen könntest (wie man ihn faltet), weil ich die Diagramme schon ein paar mal gesehen habe im Internet und weil ich immer an einer Stelle "hängen" bleibe und das "fertige Modell" nicht so schön aussieht bei mir... :-(

[AdamsSara]

@musicalorigamiable Wenn ich das Modell mal zu Ende gefaltet bekommen würde, könnte ich Dir die Frage vielleicht optimistischer beantworten. Aber derzeit glaube ich nicht daran, dass ich ein Video zu dem Modell machen werde. :(

[musicalorigamiable]

@AdamsSara na ja, trotzdem danke. :-)

[STAYTOONED2ME]

Hi, I just got to about the 23:20 point in the video and I noticed there is this triangular shape pointing down in between the very small triangles made from the squash folds. I believe that was from the very beginning of the video, when I double sinked (I think that's what you called it) the hexagon. I'm not sure if you have every come across this problem but if you have and you know how to fix it, please tell me. I will likely start over anyways as I was off on the precision a lot.

Thanks

[AdamsSara]

@STAYTOONED2ME This happens if the crease you make at 8:58 is off. I don't mind if it shows by a mm or so. But if it's more you can do two things: 1. Add another small sink in the bottom. That can give a nice touch, because you'll have another star in the star. 2. Unfold the sink and refold it with the crease done at 8:58 corrected.

[STAYTOONED2ME]

@AdamsSara i will certainly give that a try. the thing that showed up was much more than an mm though it was at least an inch or too big but i was going to start over anyways due to the accuracy of some of the folds.

[STAYTOONED2ME]

@AdamsSara I just finished the model and it looks amazing! I must add that even though I used the paper squares paper you recommended, I still have a moderate sized hole in the center. Thank you I look forward to showing this off to my family on Christmas :D

[musicalorigamiable]

hallo, kann man als papier auch elefantenhaut nehmen, sodass es gut aussieht... , das heißt ohne loch in der mitte und so... ? hello, can i use "elephant skin paper" too, to perform the snowflake model without the hole in the centre... ?

danke

Thanks

[AdamsSara]

@musicalorigamiable Elefantenhaut wird sicherlich kein Loch bekommen, ich bin mir aber nicht sicher ob es in dieser Größe zu dick/schwer ist. Eventuell solltest Du dann eine etwas größere Schneeflocke falten.

[musicalorigamiable]

@AdamsSara oh, dankeschön, wie groß sollte es denn dann ungefähr sein?

[AdamsSara]

@musicalorigamiable Ich würd es mal mit nem Fünfeck aus einem 30cm Quadrat probieren. Wenn das gut geht, dann kannst Du mit kleinerem Papier arbeiten. Ich habe das Modell noch nicht von Elefantenhaut gefaltet, kann Dir also nicht sicher sagen ob die Größe dem Papier gerecht wird. Ich nehme aber an, dass es gut klappen wird.

[Cherylee0111]

Heyy Sara ! My snowflake model turned out beautifully nice :) . Thanks to your coaching ! :D Cant believe my first try on this model is quite nice . :)) THANKS SARA !!

[patrax123]

wiii it came out perfect. Thanks Sara : )

[Uncharted3King]

coulkd u go fucking slower.. gosd damn its annoying trying to make that damn hexagon when u going so damn fast

[AdamsSara]

@Uncharted3King As I noted in the video, I have a video that explains slowly how to cut a hexagon. No need to get impolite, just jump to that video, and then come back to this one.

[Uncharted3King]

@AdamsSara sorry about my last comment. i was really pissed at the time because i was up all night trying to make the thing and it jusat didn't work. sorry for my comments. btw i was able to make the snow flake in time and i was able to bring it to call as my project and thanx to you i got a good grade..

[AdamsSara]

@Uncharted3King Thank you for apologizing. :)

[olguta13]

Yey, I've just finished the model out of my first try :) I have a huge tear in the middle but like they say "practice makes perfect". Thank you Sara for the video.

[cuoremetal666]

awesome :-)

[AntimonioOrigami]

@AdamsSara

I've just tell you when you are teaching us this model in Tabiano, but I must repeat me...

Sara, you are a GREAT teacher!!!

Thank you very much.

[uk993]

it damn hard i lost it on 13:46

!! wasted 2 hour!

[MetalKat0642]

Wonderful model & wonderful tutorial... thank you Sara and have a great Christmas!

[7623690]

Type something about the dislikes now ...

[AdamsSara]

@7623690 69 likes and no dislikes so far, yeha! :)

[FlyingToasters28]

Ah! You should read books on tape! You have a very relaxing gentle voice

[AdamsSara]

@FlyingToasters28 Hehe, thanks. Although the most common comments on my voice (here on YouTube) are that I either sound like a robot, or have an annoying as hell voice. Ah, you can't please everyone. ;)

[FlyingToasters28]

@AdamsSara No way! I lvoe your voice, and I could listen to it all day! Those tards are just jealous ;)

[PickeIdY]

Hi Sara!

Wie schnell die Zeit vergeht! Mein erstes Video, dass ich von dir sah war die snowflake von Dennis Walker. Tja und nun ist schon wieder Winter. Meine süße fängt inzwischen fleißig das Quasseln an. Ich danke dir für immer neue Inspirationen und wünsche dir und deiner Familie eine schöne Advends- und Weihnachtszeit. Alles liebe aus Stuttgart

[AdamsSara]

@PickeIdY Euch auch ein frohes Weihnachtsfest. Anscheinend steht bald Dein Saras-Video-Jubiläum an. :)

[dwyllie]

Great!

[gitargirl89]

booaaaah die sind echt schön =) wird wieder ne neue herausforderung ^^ für mich :D

ich liebe origami und egal wo ich bin ich muss iwie immer falten xD

ob in der schule oder nach nem konzert bei mcdonalds ^^

ich bin auch ein riesen fan von deinen tessalation videos =)

megaaaa daumen hoch und weiter so =)

[musicalorigamiable]

@gitargirl89 Das finde ich auch. in manchen videos sind ja z.b. welche, die eine stimme haben, die einem durch mark und bein geht. bei deinen videos is das aber üüüüüüüüüüüüberhaupt nicgt so :-) ich hab mal eine Frage: was bringt das eigentlich, wenn man einen channel abbonniert? lässt sich das modell eigentlich auch gut, also ohne loch in der mitte mit elefantenhautpapier falten, oder mit einem ganz anderen, außer dem, das du in dem video gesagt hast?!!??!!? dankeschön schon mal im voraus. :-)

[AdamsSara]

@musicalorigamiable Wenn man einen Kanal abonniert, dann wird man benachrichtigt, wenn die Person ein neues Video hochgeladen hat. Sprich, du musst nicht immer wieder gucken: Hat die Sara endlich was neues hochgeladen? ;)

[crazymonkeykingful]

wow what one paper can create or be made into something good.i love origami

[tostrong4you]

awesome, I want to try it

[joshuaorigami]

Very nice video Sara. Thanks!

[SuperDictionar]

do you like Rammstein?

[AdamsSara]

@SuperDictionar No, I don't really listen to music in general.

[SuperDictionar]

@AdamsSara thank you for the answer :)

I keep asking you to upload Kirigami videos.

Please, Sara, please....

P.S. thank you very much, I did this snowflake :)

[AdamsSara]

@SuperDictionar I think I will make some kirigami videos next year. They'll be a bit different - more about explaining basic techniques first, and then putting it together to one project. Kirigami is - from the aspect of teaching - quite different to origami, because in my opinion you have to understand the basics, rather than a special aspect of a particular model. It'll be fun to explore that.

[loyalhpfan]

I've only started to try some of the models in your tutorials and I really like them. I think you have really improved on making the tutorials - it's much easier to understand and follow your instructions now than ever.

Btw, any chance you can make a tutorial of Joseph Wu's snowflake? It looks so nice but I'm stuck at the collapsing (5th step). If you have tried it please tell me how to collapse it :(( :((

[AdamsSara]

@loyalhpfan Thanks, great to hear that. I do try to improve with every video I make. As to Joseph Wu's snowflake, I'll have to give it a try.

[DTvn93]

It's so amazing to see how a simple paper where all things can fold!^^

Snow flake is one of my favourite shape, so thank u so much for uploading of this video and you too for the permission, Jared!!! One of origami model EVERR^^

Sara, do you have your own design of origami model video tutorial to sharing with us?

[AdamsSara]

@DTvn93 I guess I could show you how to fold my eagle. But really, others have designed much more awesome stuff than my clumsy attempts. :)

[rikk06]

merry christmas sara :)

[Selur91]

You can use the hole in the centre to add a string and then use the snowflake to decorate your Xmas tree or your windows :D

The snowflake is great, thanks for sharing ;)

[MrOzMendez]

You rock! Do you like doing kirigami art?

[AdamsSara]

@MrOzMendez Yes, although I don't have enough time to do as much origami or kirigami as I could... :)

[AlleluiaElizabeth]

Just got to 14:27 and I have to say you are REALLY good at demonstrating complicated maneuvers. Keep it up.

[AlleluiaElizabeth]

Only at 4:51, but just wanted to say: Yes. It *definitely* helps to have both a white and a colored side.

[TheJakiee]

vote up if you think this origami thing is pretty good. Wait all of her things are pretty good
