Paper Folding Class - Bow, Bunny & Tag

Kirigami Bows
If you'd like to try these cute bows here are some useful links:

My go to site for base folds and some cute paper models - Origami Instructions bow link. Remember you are making the square base fold on the white side NOT the pattern side.The only difference in the instructions ignore step 14 and continue on to step 15.

A helpful bow Youtube video here.

The only fold you may have trouble with is the sink fold. Just make sure the mountain folds of the little square are crisp and as you squeeze on the sides tap the paper to help it sink and collapse into the centre.
The puffy bunny diagram can be found here on the Origami Fun website.There's also a printable diagram on the same page.

The tag is the same as the business card holder here at the House that Lars Built. In class we used a 15 cm piece of origami paper to make it smaller.

Have fun folding. By the way those butterflies in the top photo will be part of our next class in April.
