I DO NOT OWN THE SONGS IN THE BACKGROUND. THEY ARE COPYRIGHTED TO DIR EN GREY.

Need:
1 Sheet of computer paper. ( 8 1/2x11 is what I use. )
A pencil.
A ruler.
Maybe scissors, if you don't like taking the chance of ripping it.

Use the ruler to measure the sides of the paper ( If you're using mine, go by 8 1/2x8 1/2, if you're a beginner, use 4x4. )

Directions:

To begin:
Use the ruler to measure the sides of the paper ( If you're using mine, go by 8 1/2x8 1/2, if you're a beginner, use 4x4. ) and draw a line across if needed.

Fold the piece of paper and rip or cut across it. This will give you a few leftover pieces in which you can use later when you get this down! Then, you will have your square.

Let the origami begin!

Step 1:
Fold said square in half and cut.

Step two:
Fold each rectangle like a hotdog.

Step three:
Fold each hotdog folded rectangles in half, like a hamburger.

Step four:
Open the hamburger square rectangle thingies.

Step five:
Fold the one in your left hand's lower part up and to the right. Fold the upper part down and to the left.

Step six:
Fold the bottom of you right hand's paper up and to the left. Fold the top part down and to the right.

Step seven:
Flip both of them.

Step eight:
Fold the top right corner of your left hand down to where it makes a triangle at the top of your crane-like paper. Fold the bottom left corner up so it makes an upside down triangle.

Step nine:
Fold the upper left corner of your right hand's down to make a triangle on the top. Fold the bottom right corner up to make an upside down triangle.

Step ten:
Take the one in your left hand and fold the upper triangle inwards as well as the lower triangle, do the same to the left one.

Step eleven:
Move them so they aren't mirror images anymore.

Step twelve:
Flip the left one over and turn it ninety degrees to the left.

Step thirteen:
Pull the triangles out of the inward position, the one of the left should have them facing up, the right should be facing down.

Step fourteen:
Put the right one on top of the left one.

Step fifteen:
Fold one of the back spikes into one of the slits, flip it over and place one in the front, flip it over again and use the last one on the back, flip it over once more and place the last one into the last slit.

Finished!
