Instructions
Start by making a square piece of paper. To start making the square, fold one corner of a piece of paper over to the adjacent side.
To finish making the square, cut off the small rectangle, forming a square (which is already folded into a triangle).
Open up the triangle into a square. Fold each of the two top edges to the center line. You’ll now have a diamond shape.
Fold the triangle at the bottom upwards.
Fold near the center of the triangle, bringing the bottom part up over the top part.
Flip the entire origami piece over.
Fold each of the two triangular flaps towards the center.
You can fold over the top of the head to make a flat head if you like. Draw a face, hair, clothes, hands, and other features. You can model the doll after yourself, your family, your friends, or other people.
