I messed up several times, and my proportions were off by a little bit sometimes, but I stuck through it, and in the end i made a beautiful tiny elephant, so to anyone doing this right now and worrying about how yours doesn't look like hers, don't worry, just keep going, it'll work out. Don't take it too seriously, remember to have fun! :)
Don't know why but my elephant ended up with his hind legs a bit longer than the front ones. Had to shorter them a bit by folding them inside and not it looks just fine.
This is a fantastic teaching video! Many people can fold origami, but I found too many videos where they didn't explain or show what they do. Your instructions are so clear and everything is visible. Thank you very much, keep up the good work!
Wow such clear instructions, got a wee bit frustrated but that was to be expected 😂 my elephant came out better than I thought, thank you so much for making this I had fun!
Out of all the origami elephants I've found, this one is by far the cutest. I've never done origami before, but my elephant turned out perfect. Can't believe I did it, hehe! Thank you :D
@@evachallender8110 Hahaha my condolences, yeah in that case this one probably isn't for you. I found it much easier than a lot of origami videos but that doesn't have to be the case for everyone!
Leyla, I appreciate your origami tutorials so much! I only started doing origami a little over 2 weeks ago. Usually when I start a new hobby, I get so frustrated that I want to give up early on, but I've kept with it, and your instruction is phenomenal. You make even the more complicated designs achievable because of the way you explain everything so clearly. This elephant was the hardest design I've attempted so far; it was difficult, but I completed it, and I'm so proud! Thank you so much!
Love this elephant. I make them from 12" x 12" paper in all patterns and colours. They are beautiful. Thank you Leyla for your patience in your tutorials. I am your pupil for as long as you can teach and I can fold.
Tip: try to do a easy oragmi like make a a hart not cutting it to make a hart no.A origami hart bc you brain will process more and more and you can do more oragmi or make a oragmi crane.
I keep coming back to this video. The elephant is beautiful and your instructions are perfect. In other videos I struggle with easier designs, but your explanations make everything so clear. Thanks so much!
This was very helpful! I challenged myself to make an origami elephant for a class project demonstration, and this was great. It is great for beginners!
I absolutely loved this video! Your voice was soothing, and you took time to explain everything, and I thought the guidelines were genius. Thx for this easy vid!
This is such a cute elephant! I had to make 10 to make sure that I could remember the folds. Then my son decided to use them to stack on top of one another. IT worked! He took a while but they do stack. Thank You so much for posting this. Debbie
Your tutorials are by far the best ones I have ever watched before! Not only do you show the fold your doing but you explain it in detail, and that is perfect if you're a casual individual as I am. Thank you so much and keep it up!
I have done some other elephants, but this one is my favorite, even despite all the strangeness and difficulty of the project. That is a real elephant, not just a flat resemblance...Thank you for sharing and keeping this tutorial here for so long, Layla!
This is the best origami tutorial I have ever watched. You explain things very clearly and visually, and your voice is such a treat! Thank you for your great tutorial.
By far one of my top favorite animal models! I nearly tore it hugging it with joy after managing to fold it! It is a bit tricky around the ears, it needs more loose paper there so that the ear looks more natural and less stressed. I will most likely fold a whole herd of these wonderful elephants! ^____^b Thank you for yet another fabulous tutorial!
thank you!! it's so easy when you explain it- you are giving just the right directions! (hard to fish out in other origami videos around here) now I'm only going to be looking into your videos to complete the little zoo I've planned for my little angel's nursery... SOOOOO THANKFUL!
Thank you for being so clear and precise! I watch a lot of origami videos, and so many people just go "now we fold this edge!" without pointing out things like how it lines up to other folds. It was reassuring to know I was doing it right, I didn't even want to rage quit once :D
As someone who has never really done any origami aside from paper boats and planes 6 years ago this was very easy to follow! Of course doing mine on printer paper cut into a square in the middle of the night results in a pretty sloppy elephant... Thank you very much for the tutorial though! :) I'll have to keep practicing~
Although this is obviously quite a difficult piece, the instructions are crystal clear thank you! Been making origami for presents and hit the frustration of not being able to understand what the person demonstrating is actually doing twice so far.
Very complex and difficult, ESPECIALLY since I've been doing origami with post-it notes, but it turns out sooo cute... mine isn't entirely perfect, but it's even cuter because of how tiny it is! Thanks for the tutorial! ♡ Your voice is super soothing to listen to.
Lol, I remember trying to make the smallest crane possible. I got down to a 1 cm piece of paper. I wonder if I could do the same with this... unlikely. My hands are much bigger now!
this has got to be one of the best tutorials i have ever followed, despite the complexity of this animal i found it easy to follow along and i actually learnt some things about origami i didn't know before
He empezado a practicar el plegado en Origami hace poco para confeccionarles figuritas de papel a mis nietos. He hecho varios de los modelos que presentas, desde los pollitos a la rana saltarina. Este elefante me ha proporcionado una gran satisfacción. Lo he repetido tantas veces que ya lo hago de memoria. Tu explicación pausada y didáctica es de gran eficacia. Recientemente he descubierto la ranita precolombina, de la que, aunque la primera me costó un poco, he obtenido ejemplares preciosos. Gracias, Leyla, por esta ayuda tan práctica.
This tutorial was incredible. I saw the length of the vid and thought "24mins!? Why!? This is going to be so harrddd" but the way you walked us through it was perfect. Everytime u made a mirror fold u flipped the model and never rotated it to a strange angle. You also used and incredible amount of reference lines. I never thought I could fold a paper elephant. By my second attempt I was using 3" paper and making little bitty ones! Thank you!
Excelente video, muy bien explicado... Gran artista y artesana, muchas felicidades :)... Me encantaría aprenderme estas maravillas de memoria eso si jajajaja. Para los que dicen que va muy rápido, hay algo que se llama pausa. Por mi parte me salió a la primera pausando cada paso. Así es el origami, paciencia y meditación.
Gracias Sofía. No es tan fácil aprender de memoria las figuras en origami. Pero cuando uno repite una y otra vez con atención, poco a poco se va quedando en la mente. Es exactamente como dices, paciencia y meditación, eso es lo que nos enseña esta práctica.
Leyla, muchas gracias por las instrucciones en español, por los pasos lentos y los tips de lineas guías. Si no fuera por las lineas guías no hubiera hecho un elefantito lindo de flores. I had lots of fun 🌸
Thank you so much Leyla. It's look difficult but actually is pretty easy once your work is very clear and well explained. I'm on your channel and I'm looking forward for new tutorials.
Hago origami desde hace mucho tiempo y ésta se ha convertido en mi figura favorita. A pesar de que es un poco compleja, con las explicaciones no hay donde perderse. Me encanta. Gracias por el tutorial
Best origami tutorial in the world!!!! Every step was shown in such amazing detail and made so clearly, i didn't mess up even once! My Elephant turned out so beautiful!!!! Thank you Leyla!!!!!!
Finished, looks pretty good too. Like others, I have struggled to find good origami instructions online and yours is the best I have found. Easy to follow, clear and good fun. Thanks. Do you do a giraffe by any chance?
:D I did it! I am so happy! Thank you so much. I haven't done much with origami so i was kinda afraid but your instructions were so easy to follow and now I have an adorable elephant sitting on my dresser!
Thanks Leyla - I made a troupe of these for my mum for Christmas. Looked so cute strung up with fairy lights... and rescued me from lockdown eyestrain and stress at the same time. Real win win. I keep coming back to the video when I forget key moments but it's such a good tutorial. Huge thanks :)
Thank you very much for the video! It is easy to follow and your instructions are very clear. I am so happy that I made my little elephant! It's a bit messy, but still lovely :)
Wow just what I was looking for. She didn’t have her hands in the way and really showed me where to fold. It turned out great! Thank you ms soothing voice
Got me some bigger paper!!! Now I have cute origami elephants all over my desk too!!! explaining using mountains and valleys helps a lot as well. Thank you for the brilliant tutorial! 🙏❤️🌟
Thank you very much!! It's just incredible the way you teach, the way you express yourself while making it and the way you enjoy it. Just amazing how such a difficult thing can become so easy. Thanks!!
Me Tarde como 35 minutos pero lo Logre!!! No fue fácil ya que utilice una hoja de papel común, pero no es tan difícil como se ve, realmente es más fácil si se sigue poco a poco la explicación. Gracias!!
i feel like i got progressively more angry throughout this which is fine and dandy usually but i was making this to relax while doing a college application so now i'm just mad and stressed i finished it though and my boyfriend likes it a bunch so that's pretty nice
This video was great. I made my first origami a couple days ago and though I had some minor mistakes that were resolved by pausing the vdeo, the video was so easy to follow I didn't even have the sound on and it still turned out. It is so adorable.
OMFG!!!!! I am soo mad! I got to the petal fold part all the way to 10 minutes and fucked up got so mad and confused crumpled up my damn paper and threw it! >
did not know it was possible to feel so stressed while listening to the world's most soothing voice.
I get stressed every time I listen to a soothing voice
😂
La tuya por seacaso

I'm happy to receive your messages of success after making this elephant. Thank you!
It's verry hard
Don't know why but my elephant ended up with his hind legs a bit longer than the front ones. Had to shorter them a bit by folding them inside and not it looks just fine.
@@khanh1276able agreed
Her: * does one fold *
Me: ok slow down Ms Magic Fingers, what the heckity heck did you just do??
sameeeee
I know Right
Ummmm- it’s not fast :/
@@Quinnii77 it's still difficult
does anyone know if it works with normal 21 by 21cm paper

@rubyclarke1151
Huh. Basically the same story here.
Cheers from the future! ✌🏾
Huh. I mean, i had no difficulties but that’s from me that knows lots of complex origami by memory.
LOVE this elephant. And the video is slow and clear enough for me to do three at the same time. I have a stampede on my desk. Woo-hoo!
+Mui Chao Origami elephants have a way to making a great parade! Glad you like it ;-)
Maam, I think ur hands r too fast to see with human eyes
0-0 I only make 1 at a time
These are the clearest online instructions I've found yet for origami and my elephant turned out perfectly - thank you!
Did anyone else feel insanely relaxed listening to her speak?
Do you love her little stick? Cause I do! Lol :D
Gemma Rendall you must try asmr :3
Certainly unintentional ASMR with that beautiful voice/accent and the crinkling og the paper.
Gemma Rendall meh XD
And if you didn't know meh men's like not really
Great tutorial Leyla! I folded it. I realized that if you pull the trunk, the ears will flap.... like Dumbo!🐘😃 Warm regards, Jeremy
Omg I can’t believe that I am actually seeing this!!!
Out of all the origami elephants I've found, this one is by far the cutest. I've never done origami before, but my elephant turned out perfect. Can't believe I did it, hehe! Thank you :D
KN B yeah my elephant turned out so cool I love it 😻
Are u serious I don’t understand how to do the folds at all
Me 7 minutes and 30 seconds in:screaming and crying ripping my paper to shreds
@@evachallender8110 Hahaha my condolences, yeah in that case this one probably isn't for you. I found it much easier than a lot of origami videos but that doesn't have to be the case for everyone!

Me:AAAAAAAHHHHHH THIS IS SO ANNOYING GRRRRR

I was yelling at the screen and my mum thought there was something wrong
Same i almost Cried

Muito bom ! Teus vídeos são sempre excelentes e muito claros. Muito obrigada pela gentileza de compartilhar conosco teus conhecimentos em origami. 😊
Got it on the first try. Very good description on the steps. I did mine with "Animal print" 15 cm paper.....the model is about 2" high.
me encanta su trabajo con el papel! gracias por compartirlo
I can't believe I did it! Thank you so much!!
This is a great tutorial - I use these elephants for little gifts:) The video is very clear, thank you!
This was very helpful! I challenged myself to make an origami elephant for a class project demonstration, and this was great. It is great for beginners!

When you have to do origami as a "coping mechanism" from corona.
Me: ends up falling asleep because her voice is soooo calming

Congratulations for making it. You are doing origami with a great attitude!
A BIG thank you for taking your time to show this elephant step by step! The directions were very easy to follow since you were very patient.
