How to Fold a Pre-Columbian Style Origami Frog

[@xXRubella666Xx]

I found this challenging as a beginner but I finally did it! Thank you for the tutorial. Very impressive that you created this design yourself!

[@sarahbethh]

literally my most prized possession i love my little frog sm im so proud of him thank you

[@chriscensullo]

Thanks for your videos. You are 100% correct about putting it away for a minute, especially at 3:50 with the arms. Anybody having problems, just put it away and come back later and you'll get it!

[@OrigamiSpirit]

Great. Congratulations for your patience and perseverance!

Leyla, he hecho la ranita con papel dorado por uno de los lados, de 7.0 x 7.0 cm. (de ORIGAMI PAPER COLORS made in Japan) y me ha resultado una pequeña joya. Gracias por tu aportación tan valiosa a este arte maravilloso.

In response to Origami Katakana: This frog is a design of Leyla Torres (myself).

[@lesliethyagarajan]

very rewarding fold, as usually very well explained, Thanks Leyla!!

[@lizzydelnema]

I don’t get the people saying the instructions weren’t clear, they were very clear to me, so thank you very much for sharing your little frog 🐸💚

[@Katattackk6]

This is my first time making origami (I needed a frog model for a school project) and my first attempt came out perfectly. It looks just like the frog in the video! You explained how to recreate your design very well and I found it quite easy to follow along if I paused to video and re-watched certain parts. Thank you!!

[@karenm.3022]

I can say I made about 10 origamis in my life, so I'm pretty sure that's considered a beginner, therefore, this took me about 2 hours. I used the 3X3 sized paper and they look so adorable! Definitely more challenging making the creases, I bet the big one is much easier. I'm making my third one now! Thank you for the very detailed video. I wanted a frog that looked 3D and not your typical jumping frog, while that's also super cute, this looks much more alive to me. I'm going to try and make something else from your channel. Thanks again!

[@wooptyfrickindoo]

I loved this! It was a bit challenging for me but I did it. I've done a lot of your animals and my desk is getting a little cluttered with them!! :D You make really great tutorials!

[@OrigamiSpirit]

@Iolanda I recommend you stop the video at 3:50 and look at the photo. It shows where the fold should be. You must fold the little arm of the frog in a half, lengthwise, then align it with the central line. One useful strategy is to put the model aside. We must leave it for a few hours or even a few days. Then come back to it and make a fresh attempt.

Thankyou for sharing your amazing origami talents with us, these origami projects are a fab way to keep my kids entertained on rainy days❤

[@deepabhandari8011]

Loved making this frog. Thank you Leyla for the detailed instruction. I used Tant paper which is quiet thick, so the 3D effect of the model came out quiet nicely!

[@OrigamiSpirit]

Deepa Bhandari Tant paper is one of my favorites to make this frog. I also make it with Stardream.

[@thunderbirdice]

Where can I purchase different types of paper?

[@blableblu007]

[@carmendirksen-ur3cq]

Vielen lieben Dank für die ausführliche Anleitung 👌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.

[@jeffepp67]

I had to make it twice, but my second frog was spot on! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@hoshinoru_2181]

Instructions are very clear, had fun while making it.

[@vilainpetitcrapaud]

Thank your for your advice. If I make nice origamis that is because I 'm stubborn. I never abandon. Kind regards xxx

[@FlowerSofie]

Beautiful, the best frog ever seen as origami! Thanks

[@666katch]

Thank-you Leyla, You give excellent tutorials. I love my frog!

[@JhoanEsar]

Eres una maestra exelente.....

[@8troy]

Great video, loved the pace! I love that you say 'to taste' for certain folds. I was wondering why this is called a 'pre-columbian' frog?

[@8troy]

Also I'm looking this up so I can make a gift for my frog loving friend, hope they don't see this comment hehehe

[@XxSvevaxX]

Very nice tutorial! Made one for my grandpa's birthday and it turned out so cute! :)

[@Nepafarius]

Leyla I really enjoyed this frog, simple but with a little guesstimation. I made a few edits to my own. The first was locking the arms into place. I needed to since with regular kami the arms didn't stay in place. The second thing I did was make the eyes using the front of the flaps instead of the back, and curling them to give the nose definition and the eyes a deeper socket. farm6.staticflickr.com/5811/21736688128_1db6aa6af7_z.jpg farm6.staticflickr.com/5682/21898382236_417ed3afd5_z.jpg

[@vilainpetitcrapaud]

Thank you very much for this frog. I folded it but mine is not so pretty than your. Kind regards xxx. Francis

[@spootersply181]

Wonderful

[@tinksplash1143]

Can you please explain these briefly? It's really hard in 3:50. I would greatly appreciate if you answer me as soon possible because this is my project.

[@hobicorazon4229]

Very cute

[@SHAMMICrafts]

Nice

[@padrezekraberto5440]

:D Thank you. :-) This very fun :D i make 15 paper frog

[@pondfisher2123]

Nice profile picture

[@OrigamiSpirit]

@Francis I recommend you fold the frog several times. Your number 10 will be better than the first. Your number 100th will be better than your 10th!

[@sife13]
