Model: Flower frame 1 with Dice assembly (instructions/diagrams from the book "Kusudama Origami" by Tomoko Fuse)


My boyfriend recently got me 2 of Tomoko Fuse's origami books (Kusudama Origami, and Floral Origami Globes), and I've been folding like crazy since. :love:

I'm planning to make a series of kusudamas, each with a seasonal theme: summer, fall, winter, and spring. Apparently I'm starting with winter. ^^;

The top (largest) part was folded using 5x5cm paper, so the resulting kusudama is about...1.5 inches tall/wide?
The pattern in the frame of the picture was made by scanning some yuzen chiyogami paper (I'm nutty for that stuff) and using the outline as an overlay on Photoshop. :D

Thanks! I'm glad you think so. :)

Thanks. :D It actually wasn't very complicated to make, but I can't imagine trying to design something like this for the first time in the world. @_@

Practice helps a LOT. I folded 1000 cranes a few years back, and now I can probably make them with my eyes closed or something. :faint: Soo, good luck with yours, keep at it! :D

(And it'll probably be really amusing to see the cranes taking over your room/house XD)
:iconmoonangel135:
yeah i have a lot to go........ maybe cuz im naming them all *holds up a tiny tiny crane* this one's name is humongous
