Books with title Jungle Origami

From tigers to butterflies, jungle animals are some of the most beautiful in the world. Theyre almost as beautiful when fashioned out of paper through origami! In this book, readers choose from a gorilla, frog, parrot, and more jungle animals to practice their paper-folding skills. An introduction shows common folds and explains terms used in the book to help new origamists complete their first project. Each craft contains step-by-step instructions and full-color photographs of each step to guide readers through the folds to create their animal.

From world renowned origami artist, Michael LaFosse, comes the essential collection of origami jungle projects. These traditional designs and original creations make elegant paper arrangements of jungle animals, vines and trees for gifts or decoration. Perfect for the beginner, or for the advanced student looking to expand their repertoire, Origami Jungle includes everything needed to get started in folding.

With the fundamental techniques so beautifully illustrated in these pages, you’ll be able to create a menagerie of animals normally found deep in the African jungle. Easy-to-follow diagrams help you quickly learn the basic origami folds, including the kite, valley, mountain, inside and outside reverse, and pleat. So before long, a parade of hyenas, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, gorillas, lions, zebras, gazelles, and elephants will emerge from the paper. For a little extra fun, choose papers in animal prints and muted colors to capture the feel of the creatures, or use unusual colors and patterns for whimsical effects. All it takes is some paper, a bit of glue, a pair of scissors, your powers of concentration and this handy guide, to transport you deep into a magical origami jungle.
