Geometric 3D paper work




My older son has been showing a great interest in geometric shapes and I wanted to make something for him, with paper! I just simply love origami and found it origami is very therapeutic. I used cardstock papers which I bought from a local craft shop. This paper is much more harder to fold than origami paper, so I found it easier to use a ruler to fold along dotted lines. Also, I used my son's glue stick and it took a while to dry out...it did the job though! You can get templates from minieco.co.uk and more interesting geometric 3D from How About Orange. And if you would like to make slightly challenging 3D units using origami papers, you can find them from origami-club. Happy folding!
