If you want to make a five-pointed star or a rose with five-petals, you need a paper with regular pentagon shape instead of square. This page shows how to make an origami regular pentagon from a square paper.

 

In this instruction, I used 15cm x 15cm origami paper. Of course, the folding method is independent of paper size.

Pentagon



Five Rigid sides,
Intransigent construction,
No room to give,
All fall down.

Five pointed structure,
Immovable is brittle,
Chasm in the middle,
All fall down.

Five straight lines,
No room for expansion,
Blow the wind of change,
All fall down.

Five fat fingers,
Grasp a butterfly,
No room for manoeuvre,
Terminal cocoon.
