MATERIALS YOU’LL NEED:
• Odd number of thinner square paper, we’re using five 6″ x 6″ papers
• Bonefolder, or another folding tool like a straightedge or your fingers!
• Glue stick
• Drawing utencils as desired, optional

MODIFICATIONS & EXTRA TID BITS:
• This project is suitable for ages 5+ with assistance. For very young bookmakers, consider modifications like larger square paper sizes.
• The specific origami fold we are using is called a Petal Fold! Petal folds are also used when creating origami flowers 🙂
• Sometimes, folks wonder how this is a book at all! It definitely looks more like a sculptural chain…BUT it can open & close like a normal “book”, and when it does the “book” has a front cover, back cover, and inside pages! When creating this origami book, consider the usual properties of a book (does a book always have content in it?), and challenge yourself to think outside of the box of what a book is and can be!
