A Creature
Bored? Good. Clear off a little space on your desk or workspace or whatever. Done? Great, now open up your wallet and find a dollar bill or a euro or whatever, if you are reading this from overseas. This will only take a minute, and I promise I'm not asking for donations. It's time for a little origami. First, fold the dollar in half the long way and make a crease, just to find the center line:
Then fold each corner down to that crease. It's similar to the first step of making a paper airplane. It looks like this:
Now it's time to fold it in half. This is not difficult in the least bit. If this step gives you trouble, seek help. Either way, I've provided a picture:
Now things may get tricky,so pay close attention to the pictures. Orient the awkward pentagon so the point is facing the right, and fold the bottom-left corner up in a similar manner to the second step. This should make an even more awkward pentagon:
Now do the same thing with the top-left corner, and fold it down so that the right edge is flush with the right edge of the last fold. In other words, make it into a diamond:
Notice how the corner on the left has the top side folded over? Fold the top top part upwards:
Now do a similar fold with the bottom half. It's buried under the top part, so it may be a little tricky, but go for it. It's the last step. Promise.
Now it has feet! Turn it over. It may look a little flat, so find the corners to the sides of the open part and push them together a little. Now set it down on its feet!
It's a frog!
Now get back to work!
