Origami Flowers: Make an Origami Lily!


I am guessing the origami lily's difficulty is average or medium (a little bit above easy)It's a only bit hard, but also an enjoyable origami to make. I will also use a pen to hold things or point things out, since I don't usually show my fingers!  :c  As for the requirements, you will need the following:
  • 6" x 6" (15cm x 15cm) square sized paper (any color) - For everything.  c:
  • pen or pencil (anything round, but not too small) - For curving the lily's petals.
  • Turn the 6" x 6" (15cm x 15cm) square sized paper into a Water Balloon base. If you don't know how to make a Water Balloon  base, please click HERE.


1.) Start with a water balloon base. 


 2.) From there, pick up the flap on the right and gently lift it up to the center.


3.) Squash fold the flap (press it down) and it should look like the diagram above.


4.) Do this 3 more times (behind the origami, on the right, and left) and it should look like the diagram above. 



5.) Take the right side and drag it to the center crease.


6.) Do the same with the left side. Then unfold.



7.) Take the tip of your origami piece and drag the point to the very bottom. 



8.) Now unfold. Do you see the three creases? Do step fivesix, seven, and eight 3 more times on each side (left, ride, and back).


9.) When you're done, lift up the flap on top on the bottom of your origami piece.


10.) Squash fold (push it down) the fold. It should look like the diagram above. Do this 3 more times (back, left, right).



11.) Your origami should look like the diagram shown above, except mine is a pitiful looking lily. I reuse my origami paper. :D


12.) Hold the top tip of your origami and fold it downwards.
13.) Do the same 3 more times on each side. It will then look like the diagram above.
14.) Next, fold the upper parts of your origami and fold it to the center line. Repeat it on all other 3 sides.
15.) Does it look like the diagram above? If yes, please continue.


16.) Turn the origami piece upside down. You can use a pencil or pen to curl the petals. Wrap the piece around the pencil or pen and curl. Do this 3 more times on the other petals.
17.) Congratulations, you've made an origami lily!~ :D
