How to Fold a Japanese Origami Peace Crane


I am presenting the Put Up A Crane Peace Project as a workshop at the Texas Art Education Association's annual conference on Saturday.   I produced this short video so other teachers can use it in their classrooms and just as a reminder on how to fold origami cranes.  For more information on this project check out my earlier blog posts:

I realized after I made the video that I didn't mention what size paper I was using.  It is the size of a standard 6x6 inch origami square.
