Fold across the diagonal to create a triangle. Make a neat crease
Take the long edge of your triangle and folds up 1.5cm
Fold a wing down at 45degree angle (creating a perpendicular), and then back up,
making sure the fold back up is in parallel with the original
Repeat for the second wing. The basic origami bat is finished
Cut a wave into the wings, and cut a little shape out of the top of the head (this
will also allow you to use it as a bookmark corner)
Decorate with paper eyes, cheeks and add a mouth either in silver or with a darker pen
