Boat

Origami Simple Boat Design

We all may be familiar with this one as this is a part of our childhood and most of us are well-versed with the steps to make it. 

Paper Boats most often symbolize life. Like life, the paper boat won’t float forever and eventually, it will sink because everything has an end. And like life, the paper boat is fragile and can be easily destroyed. But it also symbolizes hope and innocence because the paper boat is going against the odds and can hold against flickering water to reach its destination. So let's recall the steps to make it.

Steps to make:

1. Start with a rectangular piece of paper, colored side up. Fold in half, then open.

2. Fold in half downwards.

3. Bring corners in to center line.

4. Fold uppermost layer upwards & do the same to the back. Crease well.

5. Pull the sides out and flatten.

6. Fold front layer up to top, & do the same to the back.

7. Pull the sides outwards and flatten.

8. Gently pull the top parts of the model outwards, making a boat shape.

9. Flatten well to crease all folds. Then open out slightly, forming a boat shape. Finished Boat.

COMPLETED... ENJOY!!!
