About the Book

Using only scissors and paper, learn to make 15 decorative 3D paper spheres customizable with your own words, decorations, and embellishments!

Book Synopsis

Famous in Japan for his three-dimensional pop-up art, Seiji Tsukimoto teaches readers to make 15 amazing globe-shaped, decorative paper forms using only cutting and folding--and how to customize each design, turning them into unique pieces. In this latest book in his "Wonderful Paper Spheres" series, Tsukimoto presents designs that draw on a variety of themes:

Classic Children's Tales:
* Cinderella
* Alice's Teatime

Holidays:
* Christmas
* Easter

Special Celebrations:
* Birthdays
* Weddings

And More!

Each design folds down to a flat surface and, when pressed at both ends, shifts to a sphere that features images, messages, and intricate patterns. Readers will learn to assemble forms with 3, 6, 10, and 18 rings in five difficulty levels--super novice, novice, intermediate, advanced, and advanced designs with doors.

Once they've mastered the designs, readers can use the ready-to-assemble templates to customize their own spherical pop-up forms, which can be displayed or presented to family and friends, who will enjoy and treasure these personalized creations for years to come.
