The Kirigami Project - Week 14 - Umbrellas


If it's April, it must be raining, right? Unless of course, like this morning, it's snowing! 

A ring of lovely umbrellas transform into a rather traditional looking flower design - I love it when that happens - when one idea turns into something completely different when you unfold it. Whether you're into umbrellas (and who doesn't love a good umbrella?) or Japanese-inspired floral crests, this design has a bit of both.

 To create your own Umbrella kirigami, use the template below and the 6-point folding pattern.

If you try this design, we'd love to see your version over on Instagram. Tag your shots with #thekirigamiproject. See you there! Find me here.

Happy crafting!

The Kirigami Project is a collaborative creative project from Marisa Edghill of Omiyage and Geri Jewitt of The Languid Lion. Marisa creates the kirigami designs and Geri whips them into template shape! Each week In 2014, we will bring you a new kirigami design to fold and cut.
