Origami: How to fold a Glass and a Cup

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

It’s also useful to use it to assort

and share something like sweets with your friends!

Even though it’s easy to make,

it’s unexpectedly hard to make it with good balance.

I’ll show you how to make it easily even for kids.

and put a logo stamp (the same color as the origami paper) on the white triangle space,
