Origami: How to fold a Carp Streamer

SPONSORED LINK
 

 

May 5 is Children’s Day.

I bet all the children are excited,

especially boys must be looking

for decorating Kabuto (Japanese war helmet) or Carp Streamer.

 

But recently fewer households have been decorating the Carp Streamer

since they’re so big.

 

So…, why don’t we make Carp Streamer with origami paper?

I bet your children will be pleased.

I bet the chopstick case and stand will be useful

when you have the party on Children’s Day!

And it will be more gorgeous if you add some scales.

何個も作るのは大変ですが、

Even though it might be a lot of work if you make many of them,

it will be enjoyable to have a great party with that work.
