Get ready for some eye-popping paper crafts! Amazing Origami is full of inspiration for anyone who wants to learn the Japanese art of paper folding– and we mean everyone. No matter what your age or level of experience, this kit will show you how to make origami that will astonish and delight your friends and loved ones.
The gorgeous origami fish on the cover of this kit might intimidate some paper crafters, especially those who are new to origami. Rest assured that this kit contains projects for every skill level.
The editors at Tuttle Publishing have compiled a full-color 64-page booklet of cool origami designs with step-by-step instructions. Amazing Origami includes new takes on classic origami icons like butterflies, stars, and flowers. What really sets this kit apart, though, are its more eccentric offerings. The Inflated Frog is a particular favorite.
In addition to the illustrated booklet, Amazing Origami includes 17 unique projects and 144 beautiful folding papers with gold filigree detailing. In a nod to origami's roots, Tuttle Publishing has kept to traditional Japanese patterns for the folding pages. That way, you can pay tribute to the art's origins even as you make completely new creations.
With the help of Amazing Origami, you'll learn how to make simple origami creatures like moths, fish, and tortoises. You can display your paper menagerie in your home or office, or make origami animals for your children to play with. There are tons of other projects, too, from intricate 2D shapes like the Chinese Zodiac Wheel to elaborate 3D objects like the Water Bomb Balloon.
These origami crafts are so fun to make that it might be hard to keep them to yourself. Thankfully, the generous supply of paper that comes in this kit means that you and your friends can fold for days on end. Even if you run out of paper, you will still have the Amazing Origami booklet to spark your imagination and to inspire you to keep practicing this popular art form.
