I'm doing an origami project at school. I have to make some origamis. I know how to make a paper ballon that you can inflate, and a few other simple likes like a paper cup. I even got a origami book from the library, but it is too hard. I am having trouble building an origami with no hands on training. I've been to many, many origami websites on how to build it. After nearly 4 hours of trying to do it, I finally managed to make a crane base, or square base, where there are 2 layers of paper. But I cannot make it into a petal fold base. I cannot get the paper to fold properly into it. I pulled the bottom flap up, but this is as far as I can get. Can someone help me on this? Surely theres someone (especially japanese) who can build a traditional crane. Thank you
