Synopsis

This origami kit combines the relaxation of an adult coloring book and the art of origami in one!

Color in the blank origami sheets and then fold them into one of the many origami projects found in the accompanying origami instruction book.

This kit contains:

• 48 Folding Sheets featuring 12 different Coloring Designs
• 32 Page Instruction Booklet
• 12 Origami Projects
• 7 Fine-Tipped Art Markers

The act of coloring takes on a whole new meaning when your finished origami artwork can be folded up and displayed. The art of folding colored paper is an ancient one—used by the Japanese for many centuries for relaxation and meditation. Hand-coloring and folding origami paper yields spectacular results—as a three-dimensional form takes shape before your very eyes, as if by magic!

Engaging projects in this origami kit include:

• Hand-colored Picture Frame for a loved one
• Colorful Masu Box to hold a treasured memento or gift
• Traditional Japanese Crane from paper patterns that you hand-colored yourself
