Origami is one of my favorite crafts, whether actual traditional size, or giant size which I generally go for, so with the Jewish holiday of Tu B'Shevat and all things fruit coming up in a few weeks, I thought I'd get started by trying out some origami apples that I've yet to tackle! The charming thing about these apples is that while one sided they are dimensional, and stand up on the page, unless you force them to be flat with glue, but why do that? Use them on a garland or wall hanging of some kind, and while you won't want to show off the back, it is nice that they have dimension!
Add some details with a paint pen, or not, and enjoy! No go make a bushel, here's how......
You'll Need:
- Red and pink paper squares, any size, mine are 15cm x 15 cm
- patterned paper scraps for stem
- glue of any kind
- white paint pen or gel pen
- pencil
- instructions for folding this apple, just saw that jewish moms and crafters has a nice photo tutorial here, or find it online as a video if you wish
Okay, get out that paper and let the folding begin!
