Step 1

Fold the lower half of the stripe section lengthwise over the field of stars, holding the bottom and top edges securely.

Step 2

Then fold it in half again keeping the cut edges on top. Rotate the flag 90 degrees so you are working from the bottom up for the next steps.

Step 3

Bring the lower striped corner to the upper edge, forming a triangle.

Step 4

Then fold the upper point in to form another triangle. Continue until the entire length of the flag is folded.

Step 5

When you get near the end (nothing but the blue field showing) tuck the last bit into the other folds to secure it using a Popsicle stick.
