This page is for those who want the instruction to fold a Simple Origami Iris Flower.

 

This simple origami iris flower starts from regular hexagon.

One special folding technique that you will learn from this model is an asymmetric squash-fold.

 

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

You may use any kind of paper to fold the origami iris flower.

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 with the same color on both the front and back sides.

You can easily get a regular hexagon from the instruction.

My Dream of Iris



I dreamt I cast an overarching path
Of coloured scales
Thriving on the solar rays that play upon
The waning of the storm -

I'd thrown a filmy avenue to reconnect
Empyrean with humankind!

Elated, I flitted through refracted hues -
Those from watery spheres that
Fan the iridescent prism.

And more: shimmering sprites in dance atop the spray
Conveyed adieus to gods
Departing for their hallowed visitation...

I woke and pined anon,
Begging Iris: 'Be so kind and

Take us on your wing to new endeavours -
Show that nothing in the ether tempers you!
And every time you render us a rainbow,
See it fires a lust for zest anew!'
