～桜くす玉～ Kusudama Sakura (2nd Version)

This type of Sakura Kusudama is different from the one I made before. This one was created by Tomoko Fuse, and like most of her kusudama works, the units are also united through pocket system.

Zoomed in :

I made this from 7 x 7 cm light blue paper as the main ball and flowers, and 2 x 2 cm yellow paper as the inner part of each petal.

I decided not to add any butterflies this time because I think this kusudama is already 'crowded' enough with the flower anther and filaments which I attached at the center part of each flower.
The instruction to make this type of kusudama was published in Origami Tanteidan Magazine,  number 72. I got it downloaded from > HERE <

I must say that this is the most difficult kusudama I've ever made so far. Folding the units are not so difficult. But when it came to uniting them, I got the urge to slam my head toward the wall a couple of times 
Usually I only need a few hour to finish one kusudama. But for this type, I spent 3 days to complete!
That's why I decide to refuse any request to make this kusudama as a mass project!

3D Origami doll #03 : Party Pierrot

I made this to be a birthday present for my cousin. I thought that I'd better make something for the present rather than think of buying something for her who can buy anything because she's the favorite child by her father

 I add an umbrella for this doll. I made it from 10 x 10 cm size paper, made a Kusudama Venus part's folding, and attached the umbrella holder :

Complete Variation

The reason why I named this doll Party Pierrot only simply because of the paper pattern

I arranged them into a plastic case and attached a birthday salutation on the back of its head :

When I saw the final product, I don't know why I had the urge to sell it because it looks like it's saleable

But I'm still going to give it to my cousin on her birthday anyway...

The instructions for making this doll are the same with my Ballon Pierrot

By the way, I also made an arrangement for the Powerpuff Girls paper models inside a plastic box. I posted the picture at their post.

3D Origami Doll # 02 : Balloon Pierrot

Finally I could make this doll because my 'partner in crime' was accidentally found small ball-shaped stereo foams in a store and bought them for me 

So I stated to make a 3D origami clown doll which supposed to look like this :

But when I was making it, I decided to make some modification because I felt like I want it to have legs with clown shoes. So this is how my doll turned out to be :

I'd like to show you the modification for its legs and shoes, so I zoomed in those parts :

We can see it fully modificated when it's laying down :

All of the costume parts which built this doll were made like Bell Flower Origami with different size of papers :

1. Hat           : 1 piece of 12 cm square paper
2. Collar       : 8 pieces of 6 cm square papers
3. Sleeves    : 2 pieces of 11 cm square papers
4. Body        : 1 piece of 18 cm square paper
5. Pants       : 2 pieces of 7 cm square papers
6. Head        : 3 cm in diameter of a ball shaped stereo foam
7. Small yellow pompoms for the hat, hands, buttons, and the shoes 
8. Small beads for eyes and nose

Here's the INSTRUCTION of how to make this doll.

I'm thinking to make another one as a birthday present for my cousin on her upcoming birthday. But I need to find the paper for the costume first

Paper Model # 2 : ROMMY "No.02"

If you made this model after challenged yourself to 'build' Powerpuff Girls paper models, then you'll find that this model is totally easy to make. Trust me! I've been through that myself!
The creator for ROMMY series was Watanabe Tatsuya. and like PPG paper models, the pattern for this model only need 1 sheet of A4 sized paper. And here's my result :

I made 2 of them because the test print pattern was alright , so I just built it up  XD

See?? Don't you think they're just lovably cute??

You can find the pattern for this model HERE. And you can also see the other ROMMY models on that site which....I'm planning to make them all...

I'll see you again in my next papercraft project  ^^

Modified Kawasaki Rose Wreath # 4 : Jupiter in Spring

This is a late White Day gift for my dear best friend. It's been kind of a tradition for me to give her something I made for White Day on March 14 since our uni era ^^
I failed to give her something last year because I didn't have any idea what to make for her. But this year, I gave her this :

Jupiter in Spring

The Butterflies

The Ribbon

My friend thought that the title's pretty lame but she knows the reason behind that title well XD

So that's all for my 4 season modified Kawasaki rose projects. I'm so glad that I could completely finished them all. I'll see you again in my next project (^o^)/

Modified Kawasaki Rose Wreath # 3 : Fall's Sunset

This one was given to my other cousin for her birthday. But I couldn't send this in time because of my brother laziness (-____- #)

Fall's Sunset

The Butterflies

The Ribbon

Let's continue to the last one.

Modified Kawasaki Rose Wreath # 1 : Summer's Valentine

Actually this project has been done months ago. It's just that my lazy brother kept on pending to take the picture of them (-___- #)

I got the idea for this project was because I want to make something for Valentine. Actually I wanted to make the advanced type of the rose but I failed to make it for days! o(_ _)o
Then I decide to make the intermediate rose model which I've already 'mastered'. Here's the 1st one :

The Butterflies

The Ribbon

It's currently hanging in front my room's door :


I made everything for this project from papers. Even the base of the wreath and the ribbon made from paper.

The instruction for making the rose can be found >> HERE <<

At first I only thought to make this. But after it finished, I got the feeling that I wanted to make this kind of project in 4 season theme (yes, I know I'm insane! XD )
I'll show the rest of them in the next posts.
