Making a paper swan is a fun and easy project that anyone can do. All you need is a sheet of paper and a few simple supplies.
Start by folding your paper in half lengthwise. Then fold it in half again. Unfold the paper and then fold each side towards the center fold.
Next fold the paper in half again and then cut along the folds to create four equal sections. Fold each section in half and then cut along the folds to create eight equal sections.
Now take one section and fold it in half. Then fold it in half again. Unfold the paper and then fold each side towards the center fold. Repeat this step with all of the remaining sections.
To assemble the swan start by glueing two sections together at the center fold. Then glue the two remaining sections to the first two sections forming a cross. Finally glue the last four sections to the center of the cross forming the body and neck of the swan.
Your paper swan is now complete!
