This is one of curl type kusudama by Tomoko Fuse. I made this from 30 pieces of green patterned paper sized 7 x 3,5 cm for the base part of the unit and 30 pieces of gold paper sized 7 x 3,5 cm as the curl part :

花吹雪 くす玉 ~ Hanafubuki Kusudama



This is my 1st Kusudama by Tomoko Fuse. According to the instruction, the paper size should be 12 x 6 cm. But it turned out to be quite huge for a hanging decoration and I ran out certain color papers which I used to made it... XD
So I remake the kusudama and reduced the paper size to be 7 x 3.5 cm and I think the result's size turned to be more reasonable as a hanging decoration. I made this type of kusudama from 30 sheets orange paper and 30 sheets green paper which already sized 7 x 3.5 cm :

You can find the diagram HERE .

And as always I added a tassel and you can review how to make it HERE

Hoshidama Variation

Actually this isn't really a variation from my previous Hoshidama prototype. I only changed the paper size to be 5 x 5 cm and added a tassel :



Zoomed in :


And this is how it looks like when compared with the prototype (8.5 x 8.5 cm) :

もも色 さくら玉 ~ Peach Sakuradama

Since today's my friend's birthday, I decided to make her a hanging sakuradama decoration for the birthday present. I made it sized exactly like the prototype I made before and this time I made it from peach art paper. Voila !!




I attached 2 Swallowtail Butterflies which made from 8.5 x 8.5 cm notepad papers :




I also attached 2 sakura origami pieces at the top thread :



And a tassel at the end of the bottom thread :


You can learn how to make a tassel HERE

Sakura

This is kinda cute imo.. Made from 5 parts of 4 x 3 cm paper :


You can make it bigger or smaller by resizing the paper. If you want to make it kinda round like mine, then I suggest you to make the paper size by reducing a quarter of the width of a square paper.

Now here's the video to guide you in making sakura origami : HERE or HERE
