MODULER ORIGAMI FRUITS BOWL
Hi Everyone,
ORIGAMI is a wonderful way to entertain your free time with creative ones. I have done this project in my free time and am happy to share with you how I am complete.
Supplies
- Colour A4 sheets with 90 GSM (Various fruit colours and black & white),
- Pencil,
- Scissors,
- Paper clips (6),
- Paper knife,
- White glue (Fevicol),
- Hot glue gun.
MODULES-OVERVIEW
The folded papers are called modules and users in project making.
Modules consist of left & right arms and Two pockets.
MODULER ORIGAMI-DO'S & DON'T
DO'S:
- Always remember to, connect modules as rows and form a peripherical shape.
- In this method you can start your projects from the bottom.
- Start your projects from the bottom and gradually increase or decrease according to your projects and try to complete them,
- Insert the left pocket of the third module into the right arm of the first piece,
- Insert the right pocket of the third piece into the left arm of the second piece,
- Continue these and create projects.
DON'T:
- Inserting modules one over one, you'll never get the desired project.
INCREASING & DECREASING MODULES
INCREASING MODULES:
- Place an empty module, in between the modules and close them, due to this you can increase the number of modules and the circumference of the row.
DECREASING MODULES:
- Insert three arms of the modules in one arm's pocket (2 pockets), do these, and you can decrease the number of modules and circumference of the row.
MODULES-FRUITS
- 2"×1" (inch) rectangular papers are folded and used to create projects as modules.
MARKING IN PAPERS
- Take 1" in lengthwise and 2" in widthwise in A4 sheets,
- Stack max 10 sheets of A4 sheets and clip them.
PAPER CUTTING
- Cut the paper along the marked lines by using a paper knife,
- We can get 43 rectangular pieces per sheet.
PAPER FOLDING
- Half fold in lengthwise,
- Half fold in widthwise,
- Fold the right side of the paper to the fold line in the middle(Shown in the photo),
- Do the same 3rd step on the left side,
- Open in the middle, fold down the flaps,
- Fold down the right corner,
- Fold down the flaps,
- Do the 6th & 7th step in left side,
- You'll end up with a triangle.
-To start, make about 500 to 600 triangle modules,
-Don't worry about the quantity, you can start folding after a few days, and you'll have accumulated enough pieces.
PRE-INSERTION
- Insert the folded pieces in a column (one over one).
- Do this, tighten pockets of modules just expand and easier, while inserting in projects.
- Stack 10 modules in a column, the initial process is completed, and start making our projects.
BANANA
- Start row 1&2 with 4 black modules,
- Then add 4 black modules and close them with yellow modules, this is 3rd row,
- In the 4th row, insert the yellow modules,
- In the 5th row, again add 4 yellow modules and complete the entire row with yellow modules,
- From the 5th row you can insert modules normally 40th row (or your height of the banana)
- Every 5 rows,over all gluing is recommended.
- After 40th row decrease modules then add neck to banana by green modules.
ORANGE
- Start 1st & 2nd row of 7 orange modules,
- Add 7 empty modules and close them with orange modules, this is 3rd row
- Insert 4th row with normal method,
- Add again 7 empty modules and close them by orange modules in 5th row,
- In the 6th & 7th rows insert modules normal method,
- In the 8th row add 3 empty modules and close them with orange modules,
- In 9th row insert modules normal method from 9th row to 14th row insert modules in normal method,
- After the 14th row is complete, overall glueing is recommended,
- In 15th-row decrease modules,
- 16th-row insert modules in the normal method
- Upto you can insert modules in the normal method,
- Finish with leaves and flower stalk.
STABERRY
- Start with 1st & 2nd row with 13 modules each,
- Insert modules in a normal method in 3rd row,
- Bend it to inside out,
- Apply ove rall gluing in the next stage,
- Decrease modules in 4th row,
- After decreasing, insert modules in the normal method up to the 8th row,
- Insert modules one next one method (one, gap, one, gap) in the 8th row,
- Finish leaves with green modules on top.
GREAPES
- Start with row 1&2 with 3 modules each,
- Increase 3 modules and close them this is row 3,
- Again add 3 modules and close them in row 4,
- Insert modules in a normal method in row 5,
- Reduce modules in Row 6,
- Insert modules in a normal method in rows 7, 8, 9
- Like these make grapes in count 11 above and make a bunch of grapes.
OVERALL GLUING
- Gluing in each single modules is a frustrating job and takes a lot of time to complete,
- I hate this step too,
- To avoid this, apply overall glueing inside the structure is a good one.
MODULES-BOWL
- 2.5"×1.5" (inch) rectangular papers are folded and used to create projects as modules.
- Marking and paper-cutting process are the same but paper colour may vary.
BOWL MAKING
- Start 1st & 2nd row with 45 white modules each,
- Upto 14th row, insert modules in the normal method,
- After the 14th row, put overall glue,
- Using black modules, put some design (yours view) work to bowl,
- finish with white modules, after the design is completed,
- I did a zig-zag mark with a black, white, black sequence.
BASE PLATE(BOWL) MAKING
- Start 1st & 2nd row with 5 white modules each,
- Then add 5 more white modules and close them,
- In the 4th row, insert black modules in the normal method,
- Then insert white modules in normal method 2 rows,
- Add 5 white modules and close them with black modules,
- Insert 2 rows with white modules in the normal method,
- Add 5 modules and close them,
- By using black and white modules, gradually increase the diameter of the plate up to fit with the bowl's base,
- After inserting completed, put over all glue,
- After the glue's drying fix it with the bowl's base.
