Step 2
Take the top left corner and bring the top edge of the paper to meet the right side of the paper. This will make a square shape folded into a half triangle at the top half of the paper. Smooth down the fold then open up the paper again.

Step 3
Now do the same on the other side. Take the top right corner and fold it down so the top side of the paper meets the left side. Smooth down the crease.
-
Step 4
Open up the fold and flip over the piece of paper. Place one finger on the center of the X made by the creases and fold down the top half of the paper.
