How to Make an Origami Cup
Hi! I am Michael Webb on behalf of Expert Village.com. Right now we are going to be making an origami cup. So the first thing you want to do is take your paper and make a valley fold right here diagonally, make a good firm crease. Then you are going to take each of these points on the bottom and swing them across; and you will note that it should make a perpendicular line from here to here; make a firm crease, do the same with the other end until you have sort of a pentagon shape and then you are going to take the top and you are going to fold it down, crease, flip it over, and do the same with the other end. Now you just take your fingers and move inside, and pop it open and there you have a nice cup. You can actually pour water in this as it will retain liquids.
