This page is for those who want the instruction to fold an origami boat, long canoe.

 

The special folding technique is being used for this origami boat is the inside reverse fold. Excep that, it is fairly easy to fold this long canoe.

 

Before working on this model, you need to know what valley-fold and mountain-fold are. If you know these two folding techniques, then you will have no problem in making origami long canoe.

If you find any bugs on this instruction, please send an email to HyoAhn's email.

 

You may use any kind of paper to fold the origami long canoe. It is a little easier if the front and the back side of the paper are slightly different whether it be in texture or color.

Make sure the paper that you use is a square (all sides are equal and all the angles equal 90 degrees). The paper I am using here is a typical one-side color origami paper with 15cm x 15cm square dimension. It is a good size for those who are not experienced in paper folding. If you are become familiar with this model. Then you can try smaller size paper.

Paper Boats



Day by day I float my paper boats one by one down the running
stream.
In bid black letters I write my name on them and the name of
the village where I live.
I hope that someone in some strange land will find them and
know who I am.
I load my little boats with shiuli flower from our garden, and
hope that these blooms of the dawn will be carried safely to land
in the night.
I launch my paper boats and look up into the sky and see the
little clouds setting thee white bulging sails.
I know not what playmate of mine in the sky sends them down
the air to race with my boats!
When night comes I bury my face in my arms and dream that my
paper boats float on and on under the midnight stars.
The fairies of sleep are sailing in them, and the lading ins
their baskets full of dreams.


Poem by Rabindranath Tagore
