Origami Augustar Star Tutorial – José Meeusen

Learn how to fold a beautiful 6 point origami Augustar designed by José Meeusen. This geometric origami star looks very different on each side. Made from one sheet of paper, no glue required.  This pretty origami star can be a challenge to fold, but if you follow along, pause the video when needed after each step really, then you should be able to create this star.

I would recommend using the largest paper you have to start with. Something like 20 x 20 cm is good enough. Thin paper or thicker paper works well. Use a tool to define the folds if desired. I prefer not to use one unless the paper is thicker.

Star above is folded using thicker ‘Kraft’ paper, thicker paper produces a star that is more three-dimensional.
