- 1). Lay your sheet of paper on a hard surface, color-side facing up. Rotate your square 45 degrees so it is oriented like a diamond. Fold your project in half along the diagonal, folding the top point to the bottom point. Crease well and unfold.
- 2). Fold the bottom, left side of the diamond in to the middle. Repeat with the top, left side of the diamond. Fold the bottom flap down, and the top flap up. This will create the appearance of a diamond with a triangle sticking out the left top and left bottom sides.
- 3). Fold the project in half, right to left. You should now have a point sticking out of the left side. This is the neck of the emu. Inside reverse fold the left point so that it is partially folded back over the body of the emu. Outside reverse fold the tip of the neck, creating the head.
- 4). Outside reverse fold the right end point of the project. This will become the feet of the emu.
- 5). Draw eyes on the head to complete your emu.
