Paper folding paradise,
This review is from: Kirigami: Flowers Bk. 3: Fun with Paper Folding and Cutting (Paperback)
This kirigami pack provides you with pictures of the finished project and the basic templates, as well as some paper to start. The book initially seems limited and brief, but can actually be adapted to suit the strengths of the client.
This art is often pitched as being harder than origami or tissue-art, but the designs at this level have an element of simplicity itself. This book is set at level 3, with designs that can be followed and adapted quite easily. Once a client can achieve a basic 'sandwich' fold, they can be directed to copy a design or do the cutting free hand and see what comes out. This art can look stunning on cards and montages, but you must be careful not to overload clients that have issues with confusion or cognition. Thankfully, the simplicity of designs at this level means that one can demonstrate and assist in the making of a project even if you are not very experienced yourself, unlike many other art activities which can require a deft hand or knowledge of materials. Clients with motor-deficits will find the cutting quite hard, but may still be engaged with the mounting of finished designs onto montages/cards. Overall: brief at first, but with potential to be adapted for the group type and client base.

Kirigami 3,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kirigami: Flowers Bk. 3: Fun with Paper Folding and Cutting (Paperback)
This book is the third book in a series of eight books. The book contains 24 cutting patterns that when folded, cut, and unfolded result in a beautiful flower design. This book is for those who have learned the bacis of kirigami and are ready to move on to more difficults designs.

Delightful! Also used it in my quilts,
By Ali Julia - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kirigami: Flowers Bk. 3: Fun with Paper Folding and Cutting (Paperback)
This is my first Kirigami book and I am totally delighted with discovering this beautiful art form for myself. The book has few words, yet the instructions are very clear to a first timer as myself. I would rank the designs as medium complexity. They are definitely NOT simple childish designs, yet they are possible to achieve with a pair of regular good scissor, no special cutting tools.
The book is organized in the following way: One side of the open book has 4 final designs, and the other side of the book has instruction on how to fold the paper and outline of the image you need to cut when the paper is folded for the same four designs. The book has 14 pages, yet it is packed with projects so I felt I got my money's worth. There is a total of 24 patterns. The book also comes with 15 colored Kirigami papers. And a final note that I was so delighted with some of the designs that I adopted them for use in my art quilts, basically making them a variation on Hawaiian quilting. I was delighted with the results of both of my paper and fabric projects! I recommend this book! |
