AV

Hi!
I'm AV and welcome to my blog. I love crafts and parties. For the past few years I have been hosting neighborhood parties. I first started to love planning parties a few years ago when I hosted a neighborhood Valentine's day party that I called the Valin'tiny party because everything was miniature.

Valentines day: green is the new pink...newspaper crane










Today I am going to teach you how to make a newspaper crane. I also found a movie on YouTube that shows you a much easier way to make the same crane.




  1. To start out cut a square piece of newspaper and draw pink hearts on it 
  2. Then you fold the paper in half and unfold
  3. Next you fold it in half the other direction and unfold so it makes a plus sign 
  4. Then you fold diagonally and unfold
  5. Then you fold it the other way diagonally and unfold it will make a multiplication sign
  6.   Next you push  two of the corners in so you form a mini square
  7. Then you fold the edges on top layer in to form a kite
  8. Next pull push  the top flap down  and unfold
  9. Then pull the flap up
  10. and repeat steps 8 and 9 on the other side 
  11. fold the edges in on both sides
  12. repeat on the other side
  13. open the two layers on the right side and lift flap up and close the side up
  14. repeat on other side
  15. fold a head and open wings




This is a diagram that shows how the paper should look.
