Description
Bring the folding fun with you wherever you go!
This adorable, pocket-sized kit features seven models that are perfect for origami beginners. Don't let its small size fool you—Pocket Size Origami Fun Kit comes complete with everything you need to get started:
A full-colour instruction booklet with an introduction to folding techniques, along with simple step-by-step instructions.
Included are 12 sheets of colourfully-patterned, single-sided folding paper.
The origami projects included in this kit are:
Blow-up Cube "Balloon": An impressive cubical form that looks more difficult to fold than it actually is... a puff of air makes it inflate!
Jumping Frog: A delightfully playful action model, just press its back and watch it spring.
Classic Crane: The model you see everywhere: in movies, ads, and on television... now you can add it to your repertoire!
Butterfly: A charmingly realistic model that will add a touch of elegance to any gift, desktop, or wall.
Masu Box: A classic functional model that can be used to store small items. Fold up two and use the second one as a lid.
Spinning Pinwheel: Create a whirling pinwheel that can rotate with the breeze at the end of a dowel or pencil.
Fur Seal: Author Michael G. LaFosse is famous for his lifelike wildlife models, and this handsome paper seal is no exception.
