This page is for those who want the instruction to fold a six-pointed seashell origami paper star.

This six-pointed origami star is a 2D version with a seashell shape at the center.

If you are ready, then let's get started.

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

You may use any kind of paper to fold the origami star (*it is 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 15cm x 15cm square one.

00A.

This is the front side of the paper that I am using for this instruction.

00B.

This is the back side of the paper.

As you can see, the back side is not shiny compared to the front side.

00C.

There is an instruction to teach how to make a regular hexagon out of a square paper.

You can easily get a regular hexagon from the instruction.

This is the front side of the regular hexagon.

00D.

This is the back side of the regular hexagon.

Evening Star

Twas noontide of summer,
And mid-time of night;
And stars, in their orbits,
Shone pale, thro' the light
Of the brighter, cold moon,
'Mid planets her slaves,
Herself in the Heavens,
Her beam on the waves.
I gazed awhile
On her cold smile;
Too cold- too cold for me-
There pass'd, as a shroud,
A fleecy cloud,
And I turned away to thee,
Proud Evening Star,
In thy glory afar,
And dearer thy beam shall be;
For joy to my heart
Is the proud part
Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
And more I admire
Thy distant fire,
Than that colder, lowly light.

Poem by Edgar Allan Poe
