Oragami Inflatable Bunny

The inflatable bunny is one of my favorite models and is another model that is folded from the waterbomb base. It is very similar to the waterbomb/cube. They make great crafts around Easter. You can also glue a cotton ball to make a tail and add facial features to make it more detailed if you want. The best colors for these are pink or white. 


Step 1: Fold a waterbomb base and have the top of the base point up


Step 2: Valley fold the bottom left corner up to the top corner 


Step 3: Valley fold the bottom right corner up to the top corner so its edge meets the edge of the other flap


Step 4: Take the left corner of the left flap that was just created and valley fold it to the center


Step 5: Do the same with the right flap


Step 6: Take the top left flap and valley fold it straight down


Step 7: Valley fold that same triangle flap along its longest side


Step 8: Crease and unfold


Step 9: Open the pocket on the left and valley fold the small, newly formed flap inside.  This is just like in the waterbomb.



Step 10: Flatten and repeat steps 6 through 9 on the right side so they are identical


It will look like this:


Step 11: Turn the model over so it looks like this. All steps up until now have been exactly the same as in a waterbomb.


Step 12: Take the left hand flap and valley fold it so the edge lines up with the center crease mark


Step 13: Repeat step 12 on the right hand flap


Step 14: Take the bottom point of the left flap and valley fold it so the long side of the triangular flap is horizontal


Step 15: Repeat step 14 with the right hand flap


Step 16: Grip the paper at the corner where my pinkie is in the picture above and valley fold it so that edge meets the center line



Step 17: Repeat step 16 on the other side


Step 18: Place your fingers on the side and start to open the bunny up


Step 19: Blow into the little hole in the center to inflate the bunny



The completed inflatable bunny!


You can use the little hole in the front to put things such as candy inside


Looks kinda like a peep, doesn't it?
