Things You'll Need:
- Square origami paper
-
Step 1
Create the main shape of the origami boat. Crease and unfold the square origami paper diagonally in half.
-
Step 2
Position the paper as a diamond and pinch the lower half approximately one finger width from the center crease up to make a ridge. Fold the ridge up so that it lands over the center crease.
-
Step 3
Take one side point and fold the paper in half to meet the opposite side point.
-
Step 4
Separate the sails from the boat. Fold the smaller triangle over the center towards the larger triangle. Make a mountain fold with the smaller triangle.
-
Step 5
Form the boat part of the sailboat. Pull the open ended tip of the mountain fold down to form two side walls like a canoe.
-
Step 6
Crease the side walls in towards the center of the canoe then fold each side up in opposite directions.
-
Step 7
Fold the outside of each creased canoe wall in on itself towards the center. Invert the creases to complete the origami sail boat.
