How do you make a paper angel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A simple angel can be created out of coffee filters and a few craft supplies:

  • Glue
  • 1 ice cream stick
  • 6-inch strip of ribbon or fishing string
  • 3 coffee filters
  • 1 white pipe cleaner
  • 1 gold pipe cleaner
  • 1 acorn
  • 1 small white, gold or silver doily
  • 2 fluffy white feathers
  • Glitter

Glue the ribbon or fishing string to one end of the ice cream stick to use as a hanger. Run a little glue around the edge of each coffee filter and add glitter. To further decorate the coffee filter skirts before putting them on the angel, either dot glue on them and add glitter or create a pattern with glue and glitter, and snip small V's into the filter all the way around for a jagged hem look.

When the glue has dried, cut a slit in the center of each of the coffee filters. Push the ice cream stick through the first coffee filter, slightly gather the paper where it meets the stick and glue it in place. Do this with each coffee filter, pulling each one a bit higher up the stick to create the effect of a full cascading or ruffled skirt.

Wrap the white pipe cleaner around the stick at the top of the skirt and allow it to stick out on either side until you are ready to form the arms. Roll a small doily into a cone and staple it together. Set the cone over the top of the stick. If the doily is too big, cut it down to the appropriate size.

Pull the ribbon out through the top of the cone and then glue the cone in place, making sure the cone slightly overlaps the top of the skirt. Glue the acorn on the top of the cone, slightly angled downward, as the head. Create a small gold halo from the gold pipe cleaner. Glue the feathers in place and adjust the arms.

How do you make an origami pineapple?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, to be honest, I have no idea. Making pineapples with origami is complicated, for there is no simple way of making them. You have to create a modular pineapple, and that takes a long time. Just google origami pineapple. There are plenty of tutorials and pictures. Amazing pictures. My fave is definitely the time lapse of a pineapple. It is so cute and actually looks quite real. You can always buy an origami pineapple from the shops. They sell them in peeks. Well, they did in the summer, because we bought one for our holiday as it was my sister's 14th birthday party. We did a treasure hunt. Anyway. I think you are just better off buying a real or origami pineapple because if you are not too skilled, it probably will not turn out too well. Stick to simple things if you are a beginner, such as a swan. That's quite difficult in itself. Took me 1 year to learn and memorise it. Well, good luck with whatever you do :) *u* (:

How do you make a tetrahedron?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

you can use your favorite 3d creation program of your choice, i prefer Rhino, or Alebra. Make a pentagon, copy, and rotate the sides from the center of the first pentagon exactly 63.43 degrees or the complementary of that angle. Its really easy because then you just mirror that second pentagon onto the other sides of the first pentagon. If you want a more elaborate explanation, go look for another tutorial on some site, maybe youtube if your lucky. Sorry but there you go.

How many pages are in the book the strange case of origami Yoda?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

160 pages in total, There are 141 pages of story and 3 pages of " How to Fold Origami yoda" .

The Origami Yoda books were inspired by an actual origami Yoda I made.

I saw a picture of Fumiaki Kawahata's origami Yoda on boingboing.com. They also had a link to the instructions, which were WAY too hard for me.

So I thought I could probably invent my own simple one instead. I fiddled a bit, made one and then realized that it would fit on my finger. That was a life-changing moment! If it hadn't fit on my finger, I would never have thought of writing the book!

Those books should help you make any types of origami - from very simple to the most complex.

Who invented origami item?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No one really knows. Cai Lun is officially recognized in Chinese records as the creator of paper, but samples have been found as old as the 2nd-century BCE, which of course predates his existence by at least 100 years. People have a natural inclination to fold paper when they have access to it, so origami was probably developed by numerous individuals over many centuries, as opposed to a single person creating it.
