Christmas 'Kusudama' Japanese Origami Bauble
By Sarah Burnett- Moore
About
Using decorative paper and thread/yarn we will use an old Japanese origami technique to make 60 petals then assemble five of the petals into a flower and then use all 12 flowers to make a Kusudama (Flower Ball).
We will then make a tassel and add it together with a loop for hanging. Traditionally these were hand-sewn but we will use PVA.
Suitable for all abilities.
