Arts & Crafts – queloque

Are you bored during the quarantine? Have you thought of making origami? Well this is one idea to get entertained while in your house.

Here’s how it will look like once you have completed it:

This is one of the first ones I have made.

Materials you will need are…

White or Colored Paper
Scissors
Markers or any way to color something (optional)

So, first things first you will need to cut your paper into four equal parts.

Then you cut the lines and you’ll get 4 equal pieces.

I colored them so you can differentiate between them

Now, you can color them if you want, but just one side since it won’t show the other side.

Then you are going to fold it like a triangle.

Don’t worry if there is space at the bottom of it, it is supposed to be there.

Cut the white part at the bottom of your triangle turning your paper into a square.

Now you are going to unfold it and fold it from top to bottom…

If you see in the image above you can see that there is a crease in the middle. Fold it in half again that will help you in the next step.

Now you are going to have the color that you picked facing towards you.

Fold the top to the bottom showing the white part of the paper.

This is where the base start to show its true self.

You will ONLY use ONE side of the paper not BOTH. You are going to use the paper facing you. The opening is up and the crease is down. Fold one corner down to the center.

Now fold the left corner down so they mirror each other. Let’s name this side A. Flip the whole paper over top to bottom so that the opening is below and the crease is on top.

Now that there is only one flap of paper to fold, you are going to take the upper right corner to the middle, just like the image below…

You will do the same to the other side…

This is the second to last step…

There are two side that have triangles. One is the first one we did which has a form of a pouch and the second is one that is stuck to the page. One sides A and the one we just did is side B.We are going to use the one that has a POUCH form…

This next part is tricky, you are going to turn to side B. In the side B you can see that there is a small pouch that you can put your finger inside.

You are going to pull the pouch as much as you can Not hard or soft, but just grab onto the paper behind the pouch and try to pull it away once it’s done it will look like this… 12

Now for the connecting part to make it look like the spiral, you’ll need to repeat all the steps from above to make more than 40, in order to make the full circle.

This part might get hard so I’ve made a video to show you guys this final step…

Now once you completed the step of connecting all the pieces together, you can connect it to make a full circle

And finally, Congrats you completed “The Rainbow Spiral” now you can show are quarantine buddies that you have back pain and wasted your time on something beautiful.
