Master class: how to make a mouse out of paper

Origami is not only the Japanese art of turning paper into interesting shapes. But this is also a fascinating process that will appeal to both an adult and a child. Moreover, with the help of simple movements, you can make several new toys. Today we suggest you learn how to make a mouse out of paper with your own hands.

Origami mouse

1. Before you make a mouse out of paper with your own hands, prepare a rectangular piece of paper. It needs to be bent in half, aligned, and then tucked up and down from the line in the middle. If you took a two-color paper, then fold it with the main color up.
2. Then open the right pocket and wrap it (Figure 2).
3. Spread out the part as shown in picture 3.
4. Now you need to bend the left side to the right. A rhombus should form.
5. Turn the wings of the right part to the right. You should get an even detail, as in illustration 6.
6. Bend it in half along a horizontal line.
7. Now make a vertical fold as shown in pictures 7 and 8.
8. Bend the upper right side diagonally.
9. Turn the “ears” of the triangle to the left, as shown in picture 10.
10. Wrap the ends of the mouse ears.
11. Flip the shape.
12. Bend the triangle as shown in image 13.
13. Flip the shape.
14. Draw a marker with eyes, nose, mouth and antennae.

Mouse face

If you know how to make a mouse out of paper, you will be able to originally decorate cards and gifts.

And the muzzle of the mouse is made very simple:

1. The square sheet is folded in turn two times in half (Pictures 1 and 2).
2. Then a triangle is made and its right side is bent to the left (picture 3).
3. Now you need to bend the upper edge a little (picture 4).
4. The bottom of the figure is tilted back (picture 5).
5. It remains only to draw an eye, nose and antennae.

Paper 3D mouse

A master class on how to make a mouse out of paper so that it is as realistic as possible:

• You will need to take a piece of square paper. It is best to choose two-tone leaves: white on one side and gray on the other.
• Lay it in front of you with the white side up and so that it is a rhombus (picture 1).
• Fold the leaf in half - connect the top with the bottom. And then spread it out.
• Now you need to bend the top and bottom to the fold in the middle. Do as shown in picture 1.
• Make two more folds. To do this, wrap the top and bottom of the new figure to the center (image 2).
• Now you need to turn the right side of the right part of the part to the left as shown in Figure 3.
• When all the elements are wrapped and new fold lines are formed, you need to turn the edge of the upper triangle under the bottom (see picture 4).
• The left triangle also needs to be turned back (Figure 5).
• Now fold the edges to the left again, as in image 6.
• Fold the shape in half horizontally.
• Unscrew the triangles from above (picture 8).
• Make the ears as in image 9.
• Now you need to make a ponytail. To do this, collapse the right side, as in picture 10. Then turn the tail inward and fold it up again (see illustrations 11 and 12).
• Fold the tail in half and flip the figure on its side (picture 13).
