Description: This is a cup with a narrow bottom, widening towards its top edge. It cannot stand on its own.
Remarks:
These paper cups can be used to hold popcorn, sweets, crisps or other dry treats at a kids' party.
Unless they are made of water-resistant paper, they will hold liquids for a very short time only.
Warning: Children should be taught to never pour hot liquids into folded paper cups.
If using two-sided origami paper, lay your paper with the patterned or colored side down before starting to fold.
Step 1
Place a square piece of paper down on a hard, flat surface so that it forms a diamond shape.
Step 2
Fold the bottom point up to meet the top point to form a triangle. Crease and leave folded.
You should have a triangle with the closed long edge nearest you and the open point facing away from you.
Step 3
Bring the left point of the triangle over and slightly upwards, to meet its right edge, more or less at the halfway mark.
Crease and leave folded.
Step 4
Bring the top point of the model, top layer only, down as far as you can and tuck it inside the flap you have just formed.
Crease well and leave folded.
Step 5
Turn the model over and repeat Steps 3 and 4.
Step 6
Open up the top of the model and round out the bottom as far as possible.
