How to fold an origami : Piano

Assalamualaikum and hi everyone!
Red Craft today is going to show you how to fold a paper into an origami piano.
To make an origami, you need any type of paper, usually a thin one so that it can be folded more easily. We need a paper that is cut into a square, or you can just use origami paper, an A4 paper or a gift wrapper and you can simply cut them out according to your desired size.

What you need:
1) A 10x10cm paper/origami paper/gift wrapper
2) Pencil
3) Black marker pen
4) Glue
5) 1.0 black ball-point pen

Steps in making origami piano:



1) Take your paper and lay it flat.



2) Fold the paper so that the design is at the outside. Crease well.



3) Fold the paper into half and crease it well.



4) Now you can see the valley fold. Take the left and right flaps and fold them to the middle of the paper. (which is at the valley fold)





5) Open the left and right flap so that you can see two triangles that look like a house.





6) Take the lower flap under the triangles and fold it up.Make sure that you crease the flap well.



7)Fold half of the triangle on the left as well as the right one at the middle of the paper. Crease them well too.



8) Open the flaps and there you have a piano, but it's not complete yet.



9) On the horizontal flap, draw the keys of a piano using a pencil.



10) Open up the origami.



11) Colour the black keys of the piano using a black marker pen. Draw the line for every key of the piano with a 1.0 black ball-point pen.



12) Draw a sheet of paper with music notes like what you can see below.



13) Apply some glue behind the flaps that are drawn with piano keys on them.



14) Fold the flaps back to their original position and press them firmly

15) Now you have it, a piano!




Useful tips:
1) You might want to draw some accessories on the sheet of paper of your music notes. This is just an example of a modified one.
