I’ll show you how to fold a snake with origami paper.

Maybe most of you don’t like snakes, do you?

They move so fast on the ground or swallow small creatures….

It’s kind of scary in reality, isn’t it?

 

But it’s become one of the Eto (Chinese astrological calendar),

it is sometimes worshipped as a lucky charm too.

Since we can make a cute snake with origami paper,

let’s give it a try for your good luck too!

Don’t you think all of them are easy to fold?

Even though they are easy,

If you put a wiggly tongue or a sharp fang on them, they will be more realistic!

It’s so practical too because it can be used as a chopsticks stand.
