Paper Kawaii - Origami Tutorials | Origami Swan Napkin Folding Tutorial - Paper Kawaii @paperkawaii | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 1 day ago
Learn how to make a beautiful swan using a paper or cloth napkin! This pretty origami swan will not flop over like the others! You can fold this swan with friends at the dinner table, make a whole family of paper swans!
I love these little napkin swans, they are a fun thing to teach at restaurants and cafes.
I always had trouble getting them to actually stand up (or sit up) - the neck of the swan would always flop forward or the body would collapse. I noticed that by creating a 'tail' at the back, it will stay upright 😄
You can also make a duck this way, just fold the neck to be shorter.
The head can be a little annoying, my napkin ended up being pretty thick at that point, but you can always give it a simple head - like an origami crane.
I spent a bit too long shaping the tail, I think it looks better when the tail is all floofy. Like a real swan, they aren't perfect! 💗 By the way, you can totally use paper to make this, the thinner the better, tissue paper will work great. 😀
Design: Traditional
Level: ★★☆☆☆

▸ 1 square napkin, cloth or paper.
Paper will mean more layers for the tail!
I used a standard (and cheap) white paper napkin (2 ply).
Used: 16.5 x 16.5 (folded, how it came in the packet)
Final size: 11 x 9 cm
