How To Make A Paper Bomb
Are you looking for some origami that is a bit more fun than the usual swans? Why not try making this paper bomb with Jenny Jones, arts and crafts expert. Just be careful who you throw it at!
You Will Need
- 1 A4 piece of paper
- scissors
Method
Fold one corner of the paper to meet the opposite edge, forming a triangle, then cut this away from the remaining rectangle of paper. Unfold the paper to reveal your square.
Fold the two corners of the square, then open out the paper to leave two crossed creases. Turn the paper over, then fold from side to side in both directions.
Squash the paper into a star shape, then fold it into a triangle. Take the left hand bottom corner and fold it up to the point of the triangle; do this again for the other side. Turn the paper over and repeat on the reverse side.
Take the side points and fold them into the middle, turn it over and repeat the same folds.
Fold the top flaps and tuck then into the gaps on the side fold. Repeat on all sides.
Inflate the bomb by separating the side, and blowing into the little hole at the end.
