Origami: How to fold a Locust
SPONSORED LINK
We have more chance to see a locust in summer, right?★
I bet most people used to collect insects in your childhood?
It’s so hard to catch the one with long legs, isn’t it?
Because they usually hop high.
Why don’t you feel like its summer folding various types of locust,
such as the one which is easy to fold,
or the one whose legs are just like the real locust,
since I’ll show you how to fold them?♪

If you fold them with origami paper with green or greenish yellow color,
they will be real, but you can also enjoy with other colors too!
It might be fun if you add eyes on them too.
It will be livelier if you decorate them with other insects’ origami,
since they can stand by themselves.❤
