We are going to make a very beautiful 3 dimensional butterfly. Take a square of color paper 15-cm on the edge. First fold along the diagonal to make a big triangle. The open and fold the other diagonal. Upturn the paper and fold a minus sign. Then open and fold a plus sign. Collapse the paper to make the Water Bomb Base. Now double the model and trim the corners and make them rounded. Open the model so that there are two layers on each side. Fold the two rounded corners to the midline. Then upturn the paper. Take the apex and fold it a little ahead of the bottom edge. Fold the small triangle in. This will act like a lock. Now the 3-D butterfly is ready. This is the back view of the butterfly. The contours of this butterfly resemble a real life butterfly. Make butterflies of various sizes and colors. Decorate your room with these beautiful butterflies.
