Question

Can I make fridge magnets with these?

Community Answer

Yes, they will work if you buy magnets and superglue them on the back of the paper. Any magnet will work, I suggest buying some that are cheap.

Question

Is an origami lily like a harebell flower?

Community Answer

The way the petal curves is similar, but from a close view, mistaking them would be hard for someone who knows the difference.

Question

Can I make an origami lily with small paper?

Community Answer

Yes, but it will be a lot more difficult. The folds are very precise, and the smaller the paper, the harder it will be for you to fold it.

Question

How big is the origami lily?

Community Answer

It depends on the size of the paper you're using. For example, a 4 x 4 inch paper used to make one would be smaller than 5 x 5. It's easier to fold with larger pieces of paper.

Question

Will this lily method work for a paper crane?

Community Answer

No , the method of making a paper crane is different from the lily method. You could probably use the same size paper but use a method meant for making a paper crane .

Can I use any colour?

Yes you can use any color you want. If you have white paper, then paint the paper before making the lily, or leave it white.

Question

Do you have to curl the petals or can you just fold them down?

(Grace L) Thanyapa Liang-ampai

Community Answer

Curling the petals make it look more real but folding them down is okay - it will make it less real though.
