For the rounded leaves
use your finger to push the
other side of leaf outwards
fold straight over
You can roll up a small strip of paper
put in the center of the plant.
Round Pot
paper size: 10 x 10 cm
I highly recommend
using larger, 20 x 20 cm
paper to practice this
pot before making a
small one.
Check that the
triangular flaps are
correctly aligned.
They should all be
the same size.

Complete the octagon
shape, crease well.
Fold all points diagonally
inward, from the creases
indicated by the red lines.
This crease is for folding
the top lip of the pot.
Hold the pot and fold the
top sections inside, you
can do it one section at
a time or all in one go
