How to Make Origami Rabbits Heads Craft for Chinese New Year

CRAFTS MATERIALS NEEDED:

– paper
– markers (black and red)
– scissor

Step 1.

Take one corner of the paper and fold it to the opposite side, and, with the scissor you cut the remaining paper.

Put the paper triangle on the table with the large edge to you.

Step 2.

Fold the left corner to the right one …

… and then unfold.

Step 3.

Fold the bottom up approximately a quarter of the way.

Step 4.

Fold the bottom left towards the centre crease.

Press well. Then do the same with the right part.

Now it should look like that:

Step 5.

Fold the bottom tip upwards a little.

Flip the model over front to back. This is the rabbits face with the ears pointing up.

Fold the top of the rabbit’s head back and tuck behind the face.

Step 6.

With the black marker draw rabitt’s eyes.

And with the red one, his nose and mouth

That’s a cute little rabbit head! It will bring you luck all the year 🙂
