Sommario/riassunto |
|
Making a polar bear out of paper might seem difficult at first. But through the ancient art of origami, readers are able to bring this white-furred bear to life with just one piece of paper! In this book, readers can work step-by-step through creating arctic animals out of paper. An introduction including common terms and origami folds helps readers get started in making an arctic fox, penguin, and narwhal. Projects range from easy to hard, but each contains full-color photographs guiding readers through each step, allowing them to complete the project whether they're seasoned origamists or new to the craft. |
