Did you know that the Easter bunny hatches from an egg? It does in the world of Ecogami!
In the past I've featured summer-themed low poly models and festive paper craft models for the holidays.... I find it satisfying to get ahead of the seasons by having decorations at the ready.
This little guy is pretty darn cute and if you're ever in need of a mask, you too can be a koala!
Time and patience are requirements while constructing a model. Choose a project and plan to enjoy the process no matter the time it takes. Like many who have reviewed Ecogami templates, chances are you'll feel yourself unwind while you craft. And when you are finished you'll have the best sense of accomplishment.
Scissors, ruler, white glue, and a scoring tool (bone folder or even a butter knife) are the necessary tools - simple enough. You'll download a ZIP file that contains a template to print on A4 or A3 (Letter or Tabloid) sheets. Print at home or take the file to your local print shop to choose any paper you wish and have it printed there. Éric recommends using paper that is at least 200 GSM, ideally 270. English instructions are included.
You'll cut out the pattern pieces and fold/match up/glue edges together by following the numbers. Éric usually colors/decorates his models with paint or felt tip markers after they are folded and glued.
This elegant paper shade hangs gracefully from the ceiling as a pendant light. A pale pink one would be so pretty in a baby girl's nursery.
A shiny metallic wolf is sure to be noticed on your wall and the cuteness of this colorful hedgehog slays me!
