The Kirigami Project is a collaborative creative project from Marisa Edghill of Omiyage and Geri Jewitt of The Languid Lion. Each week in 2014, we will bring you a new kirigami design to fold and cut. At the end of each month, there will be a free printable of that month's templates. This page will be updated weekly with the new designs and folding patterns.
The term "
kirigami" comes from Japanese woods "
kiri" meaning cut and "
gami" meaning paper. Quite simply - paper cutting. Reminiscent of the paper snowflakes we made in school as children, kirigami can be a wonderful way to blow off a little creative steam without requiring much in the way of materials or making (too much of) a mess! Join us as we spend a year exploring this simple yet intricate art.
