Kirigami

While origami is the process of folding paper into representational shapes, kirigami takes it a step further by using scissors to add details. By following the simple instructions and detailed illustrations, children can transform plain paper into original, 3-D projects of all kinds -- dragons, castles, helicopters, ladders, masks, cards, and more. The difficulty of design increases through the book so that any creative enthusiast will grow in technique, with dynamic sunflower pop-ups just a few folds away.
