Cut a square out of paper. An easy way to do this is to take an 8.5-by-ll-inch piece of paper and measure from one corner to 8.5 inches. Make a mark on both sides of the paper and draw a line between the two. Cut across the page to make a square.

2
Draw two diagonal lines between the corners of the square to make an x. Cut from one edge to the point where the lines cross.

3
Fold along the remaining three lines so that the triangles next to the line are overlapping. You now have a pyramid.

4
Put a few drops of glue between the two overlapping triangles to attach them together. You could also use tape.

5
Make a base for the pyramid. Put a thin layer of glue around the bottom edge of the pyramid, and put the pyramid down on a piece of paper. When the glue dries, simply cut around the pyramid to cut out the base. Alternately, you could just put the pyramid down on the open side and not use a base.
