Very few books unite jewelry making and origami, thus Fashioning
Origami will be unique among books addressing this subject. Author
Julian Laboy-Rodriguez will introduce readers to dozens of
different origami creations and many different folds and then
demonstrate how to turn these paper motifs miniature, pairing them
with jewelry findings for fun and gift-worthy accessories. But
there is more to origami than just folding paper. It's the perfect
hobby for a stressful world. Fashioning Origami will also address
the misunderstanding that origami must be delicate because it's
paper. Julian will [also] show the reader how to create a crisp and
sturdy feeling with the right products and simple science.
Citygami London is a craft project, a diorama, a study in
architecture, and, when it's finished, a stand-alone piece of art.
Inspired by one of the world's great architectural cities,
Clockwork Soldier have created a unique experience that lets
readers replicate London's most famous buildings, while also
gaining fascinating insight into their histories and significance.
Here, scale models of the Shard, Tower Bridge, St. Paul's
Cathedral, the London Eye, and other structures are presented in
die-cut, pre-folded, cardstock pages. Clear, easy-to-follow
instructions show you how to assemble each building. Accompanying
the models are a set of detachable cards of the buildings, allowing
readers to play against each other by comparing facts and figures
about the structures. Best of all, when every building has been
constructed, the result is a display-ready cityscape of London. As
fun as it is educational, this craft book promises hours of
absorbing activity and a lasting keepsake for years to come.
