How to make the One Sheet Origami Tree v4 Designed by Jo Nakashima (02/2020) Difficulty level: complex
This is the ultimate version of my One Sheet Origami Tree, after 3 flat versions. Despite of the simple look, it is actually the hardest of my origami trees.
Paper
I start the tutorial with a 15cm x 15cm sheet of origami paper, but after some steps I change to a 24cm x 24cm sheet to make the steps easier to see. It’s possible to finish it with the 15cm square, but the recommended size is 24cm to get a good size for the finished model.
Diagrams
Notice: at first I’ve made these diagrams only for the video, not to be published separately. For this reason, some transitions or steps might not be so clear. If you find some step difficult, you can find more detailed instructions in the video tutorial.
Previous Christmas Trees
In addition to the One Sheet Trees, I’ve created also some of modular trees. They are easier to fold (especially the Easy Christmas Tree as its name suggests) and doesn’t need glue to connect their units. Click here to open my Christmas playlist with all my trees.
