I’ve heard that peaches have been highly appreciated

as the fruit of perennial youth and longevity,

which could purify maliciousness.♪

Get over super-hot summer days, eating icy-cold peaches!

Let’s make a summer fruit, a peach with origami paper!

４．Fold both corners behind, along the dotted lines.

If you draw green for the leaves’ part,

they will be like real peaches.♪

Enjoy drawing,

putting another paper and folding them together!

Also, the shape differs, according to the angle you fold.

So try various shapes of peaches too.♥
