For 9 years, I still love this tutorial. Thanks so much and Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤ 🎉2023 to you.

[@Happyfolding]

And here's the second instructional origami video for November: Star Sonobe by Maria Sinayskaya. I show the full assembly, too, and with some detail, so that you should be able to follow along even if this is your first kusudama. Enjoy!

[@WarlordX7]

plz tell me where you got that gold and green paper and second, where do you usually get your origami papers from ??? thank you very much. i made it and looks awesome but i really wana know where i can get the green and gold paper so i can make 1 with exactly same colors :D

[@Happyfolding]

WarlordX7 I bought the paper at the Italian convention some years back. I think this might be the same paper: www.origami-papier.eu/75x75cmgoldsilber-c-6_7_17_229.html As to where I buy papers: all over the place. Some paper I buy locally, some online (especially at www.origami-shop.com), and some at conventions.

This diagram is fantastic. The stability in the finishing product is amazing and it all fits perfectly when I got all the 30 pieces together. No imperfections or anything. I'll definitely make more of these. Will look great in the Christmas tree too! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for this detailed tutorial. Following your instructions it has been very easy for me to fold this model.

[@pattsyorsburn2471]

I hope that I can remember all the folds she made, but I'll try. for I really like this one, I think she did a fantastic job. Very good teacher.

[@dobratencaocria8505]

I liked very much your explanation 😊

[@MewMew811]

Do you use something like varnish to make the finished origamis more permanent?

[@yolandajaramillo6514]

[@meika79]

Thank you for this. Just finished.

[@galalon2]

hi there, i have a question, if i may... lately i have been trying to fold sanobe in deffent shapes, apart fron the tesselated octahedron and icosihedron. iv'e started to fold partially plotonian solids (aka perfect solids) like tesselated cuboctahedron. problem is, the traditional sanobe only goes up to 90 degrees,so i can only make tesselated triangles and squares and can't make things like dodecahedron, i tried changing the sanobe by making it thinner, but the sturcture wont hold up, can you please help me find a sanobe that goes up to 108 degrees at least?

[@samsteres]

did it!!! finally.

[@john941996]

is there a formula we can use to determine the size of the kusudama if we us a sheet of paper x in length

[@john941996]

i figured it out lol its y=1.2x where y= the diameter and x=side length in either centimeters or inches

[@Happyfolding]

Drawadactyl Yes, that's right. Good of you to figure it out. :)

[@dexterkillsu2209]

And I did it YES! Lucky I knew how to do something very similar..whoo!

[@sourapril]

Is there a method to follow if I want the colors to be distributed evenly?

[@Happyfolding]

Check the video description. I added a link in the very top.
