How to Make a Paper Crane - Origami

Explains how to turn a piece of printer paper into an origami crane. It involves some new and advanced folds which I go through step by step on how to perform. Hope you enjoy!

Traditionally, the Japanese crane is expanded at the very end, although I usually prefer not to do this. To do this, you can perform the following: 1) Just grab each wing and pull them gently apart until the middle part inflates or expands, or 2) try blowing on the bottom of the crane to inflate it that way (doesn't work as well for me).

NOTE: This is NOT an action model, meaning it does NOT FLAP, nor is it supposed to. To make a FLAPPING BIRD please see the link below***

This is a good tutorial except for part of the petal fold. I've made cranes very similar to this, except during the petal fold, before you unfold the two flaps, you take the little triangle shaped piece of paper above them and fold it down and back up, them unfold the flaps. It makes folding the two sides in much easier. Trust me.
