Origami: How to fold a Rabbit

When I was an elementary school student,

we used to have rabbits in our school shed.

I remember they were so popular amongst all the students.

They were fluffy and very adorable especially when eating carrots.

We can make a rabbit so easily with origami paper too!

Let’s make various kinds of rabbits,

such as cute one or an adult-like one.♥

Fold both sides to the crease along the dotted lines.

２．Fold the right tip along the dotted line to meet the edge of origami paper.

３．Fold the tip to the right along the dotted line,

so that it sticks out to the outside.

４．Turn it over and fold the left part to the right along the dotted line.

５．Fold it in half to the back.

６．Pull the top triangle up.

７．Cut 2/3 of the ears with scissors.

They are cute with white and pink origami paper

but they’ll be more adult-like ones

if you use gray origami paper!

You can arrange various types

by changing ways of folding or the length of the ears too.♥
