Origami is the ancient Japanese art of paper folding that has captivated people around the world for centuries. One of the many creations you can make with origami is a miniature chair. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll teach you how to make an origami chair in 13 easy steps.

Materials Required:

– A square sheet of paper (preferably origami paper)

Step 1: Start with a square sheet of paper, color side facing down. Fold the paper in half, creating a rectangle.

Step 2: Unfold the paper and fold it in half again, but this time, perpendicular to the first fold.

Step 3: Unfold the paper again, and now you will have a visible crease in the middle. With the colored side facing up, fold each corner into the center crease.

Step 4: Turn the paper over so the flaps are facing downward. Fold both sides into the middle crease.

Step 5: Unfold both sides and lift up one side flap while pressing down on its edge to create a diagonal fold.

Step 6: Repeat step 5 for the other side flap.

Step 7: Refold both sides inward along their original creases while making sure that triangle flaps created in previous steps are properly tucked inside.

Step 8: Fold up both bottom and top edges so they meet at the center line.

Step 9: Now, turn over your folded piece and fold down triangular flaps at top corners. This creates your backrest.

Step 10: Fold up a small flap at bottom corners to create seat legs’ thickness.

Step 11: Fold backrest piece toward seat piece until backrest’s lower triangular portion lines up with chair edge

Step 12: Tuck backrest triangular portion under seat piece’s flaps to secure it in place.

Step 13: Make necessary adjustments to ensure chair stands upright and straight, and you’re done!
