Take the square sheet and fold diagonally to make the opposite corners meet to form a triangle (see the second pic on the top right of the collage).

Then fold the left vertex of the triangle to meet the top vertex. And then do the same with the right vertex. Make creases.

Unfold the last two folds and you get the triangle again and two flaps made by the creases.

Now, fold the right flap along the crease made in the last step (see top right pic in the collage). In the same way, fold the left flap along the crease on the left side too (see the bottom pic in the collage).
