I recently began posting beginner level, origami, video tutorials to help people have a fun activity they can learn as awareness of the reality check that we all need to practice social distancing and quarantining due to the Covid 19 virus takes hold.

So far I've shown how to make a swan, fish, and box. This should have been the first video: How to cut paper squares.

Since most of you probably don't have pre-cut and packaged origami paper lying around this is how you can cut your own. KIDS: Only use the X-acto or kitchen knife with your parent or guardian's permission and supervision.

There two additional illustrations in the blog post on Patreon that illustrates where to cut when cutting a square with no creases. I would have added it to the video but didn't think about making them until after I began uploading the file to Youtube.
