With a square piece of paper, and some patience, you can fold a three-dimensional ball/balloon or cube that you can actually blow up like a little balloon. In fact, you can even fill it with water and make your very own water bomb!
[Edit]Steps
[Edit]Creating the Flaps
- Fold a square piece of paper diagonally, in both directions. The creases should make an "X" in the paper.[1][2]
- You can find a range of origami paper on Amazon.
- Feel free to add a design to the paper so it appears once it is folded.
- Fold the paper in half. Do this by bringing the bottom portion of the paper to meet the top portion of the paper.[3][4]
- Bring the upper right corner in as shown. Then, repeat this on the other side. Press down firmly on the folds.[5]
- Fold the flaps to the top. Then, flip the whole thing over and repeat the same steps on the other side to make a diamond shape.[6]
[Edit]Tucking the Flaps into the Folds
- Fold the right and left corners into the center of the diamond. Repeat this on the other side.[7][8]
- Tuck the loose flaps into the folds you just made. Do this by folding a small triangle on each of the flaps and then tucking them into the folds. Repeat this for all four flaps.[9][10]
- If you have a hard time tucking the flaps into the folds, use tape to secure them to the folds.
- You can also use a pencil to open the folds easily and to avoid damaging the flaps.
- Turn the folded paper to the end that does not have any flaps. Locate the hole in the center of this side.[11]
- Blow into the hole. The ball should inflate - just remember to keep those flaps tucked in.[12]
- You might also need to loosen up the other folds a little bit for the ball to become round.
- To make a water balloon, slowly fill the balloon with water via the small hole.
[Edit]Tips
- The bigger the paper the easier it SHOULD be.
- Tuck the flaps nicely. Otherwise they could come out when you blow air in the balloon.
- The flaps at the end don't have to go completely into the edges of the paper. It will work fine if they just go halfway.
- If you fail to make a good balloon on your first few tries, don’t worry. Simply get new paper and start again.
[Edit]Warnings
- When throwing water bombs, be careful not to hit anyone in the face as this can cause serious injuries.
- Paper cuts may occur.
