I really remember, when I was obsessed with these mini books. And made so many times... I still have one of the books. It's been years. And thank you for sharing this with us ❤️

[@arnav3133]

man i want to go back to folding models with no worries

[@martialaw566]

god bless whoever came up with this design, it's actually so cool bc you can vary the pages and thickness

[@paperkawaii]

Nearly 1 year and nearly at 1 million views! Thanks so much for your support :3 ♥︎ ♥︎ ♥︎ Seems so long ago, and I hope that my videos are better now then they were then, I am thinking of making a video with different larger sizes for this book ☆☆☆

[@ayshaali6366]

[@lucymarshall4393]

so cute but i bet i cant do it...

[@paperkawaii]

Lucy Marshall bet you can :)

[@lucymarshall4393]

thanks :) my nan is really good but for me it takes a lot of practise

[@origamistars1587]

Paper Kiawaii, you are the most talented origami artist EVER. How do you come up with your designs? They are so good!

[@shad0wed_s1gnals]

@Judah Smith they both are! :)

[@p0cketplut0]

I absolutely agree! Love the content paper kawaii!

[@doodlingdebbie1]

These little books are adorable. I can't wait to try and make one. Thank you for being so generous with your time and skills to make this tutorial so all can enjoy.

[@cocomelodie8532]

yes you´re right this is really adorable. and she make it so generous and so on

[@sabthefab4575]

I can't wait to try it either!but I don't have scissors or origami paper cause I'm on vay cay

[@sabthefab4575]

Vacation/vaycay

[@cansukoksal6895]

glue is optional but necessary :D

[@thenessa4048]

Hahaha! She's funny.

[@littlefoxfanpresents2377]

LMFAO

[@obliviousacidyt3910]

lol I was thinking if I should put glue or not and when I decided my paper was gone😭😭😂😂

[@inescastello2590]

Sanchez Garcia hahahah😂

[@timmenejias5408]

When I first learned how to make an origami book it only took one piece of paper, but after seeing your video, I was amazed. The book you made was so adorable! I just want to thank you so much for making this tutorial, I've been making origami for a long time and I have never found a channel quite like yours. I love the video, and thanks again!

[@bedebop3904]

This is a nice channel but i have a messy table and can you make a book that is made out of 1 piece of paper? Good job. XD

[@paperkawaii]

Guys it's Modular origami. You cut the paper to size, make the components and put them together, the glue is optional. Anymore comments of 'Kirigami' and 'It's not origami' I will ignore.

[@Emily-fy7gq]

Dzięki wielkie za tą instrukcję, bo to jest naprawdę łatwe! I ogólnie nie można tego nie umieć, bo to jest po prostu harmonijka w okładce.

[@AoiGlitzArt]

cut* and I agree with you!

[@dancerprancerblitzen]

lol even if it IS kirigami who cares

[@paraxo7192]

Look, I'm going to start out by saying this. You trying to keep all of them connected while gluing them really bothered me, it would have been simpler to glue them as you go. Secondly, this is Modular Kirigami, However, Kirigami is technically a variation of Origami, so you still say it's modular Origami, I'm just being specific. But overall this was a nice little design, something to rest on after making a swan. Bloody swan took me three days using 1/16's of 11"/8.5" paper (printer paper)

[@paperkawaii]

Paraxo After starting to glue, it bothered me as well.. I didn't think it through, getting the point across to glue them together without losing their 'place'.. it's cringe worthy for me. But I didn't have the opportunity to re film that part.. thanks for the feedback..

[@sirimerugu4436]

does anyone else notice this? Her origami ends up sooo much better than my origami. Like all my pages were uneven and got everywhere.

[@paperkawaii]

@BLAKI pearl I'm not sure how you would make a booklet in the shape of a bird, but what you could do is make a book, use my tutorial but use bigger paper? Then you could make two origami cranes quite big and stick them on each cover? Just a thought, good luck with your project!

[@justinoventura1349]

Me to dont mind my dads face and im like a artist too my class teacher likes my origami and i was ha ppy

[@shailapervin9360]

A useful tip- You can make Origami Slinky from the pages.But you need at least 20 pages.Follow all the page steps in this video.Must use Glue.Glue is necessary.But don't glue at the last step. I recommend you to use 20-30 pages for a perfect Origami Slinky. You can play with this. It's my own Idea. Like my comment if you liked this. Can I get at least 50 likes😊😊😄?

[@reudanesimi3552]

for a second I thought it will be a big book with the large size.. but however This was very cute and beautiful ,great job and thanks that you're showing us the way.. but how can we write on it? I really need more information about creating a big book like normal not small, can you help me ? because I need to create that origami big book for my little sister's show .

[@sasha_lpscreamy_1187]

You're a good brother/sister. :)

[@littlefoxfanpresents2377]

Just use large scrapbook paper if you can. Repeat what she did but use your larger pieces.

[@karmelawad1621]

+Reuda Nesim So true******

[@lia5911]

Reuda Nesimi just use bigger pieces of square paper like maybe A3 or something

[@alexifrancescalippo827]

[@ranaraafat1766]

Sorry, I don't understand with inches, What is the size of the cover and 4 papers with CM?

[@mallirania239]

cm is written in the description

[@mildlypanda7490]

For the example used in the video, 6 inches is 15cm.

[@endybragg2523]

I like the music...it's peaceful

[@juliea9833]

Haha during the glue bit, I was thinking about how I didn't have glue, but figured I wanted to keep my pages nice and compacted till I needed them for the cover, so I got a mini clip too :P

[@almasameen868]

Your origami book was awesome.I'll will try

[@user-ge6vm7kg7l]

It's very very beautiful and cool.

[@VyouttarOrigami]

Great model !!! thanks for sharing ...

[@crafthouse4971]

Queen of origami

[@nyameowmeowmeow]

does it necessarily need to be square?

[@paperkawaii]

No, you can make it a rectangular book, check this video out if you like kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoqpqaCqacijrNE 🙂

[@stopmotionanimations2417]

Great project!!! im planning on giving one to my brother, who is 6

[@masonlittlefield4036]

OMG this is my favorite origami ever

[@larinab]

fricking cool as hell im a book blogger and i know what kind of swag i will be making!! these are so neat

[@michelebernsteinklausner4634]

Great video. I loved this and have made several of these mini books.

[@rosasarah93]

Awesome! I tried doing it a couple of time and with a little more practice I got way better

[@thisissoaniceusername2978]

For all of you saying that it's not origami because you glue, well, you don't need to use glue, it really doesn't fall off, it's just so it will be harder to fall off. And for all of you saying it's not origami because there was cut, origami is art with paper, using a smaller, bigger, round, extended piece of paper, it's still origami.,

[@soph3023]

OMG this is amazing, I made one for my baby cousin with a story inside and she loved it!!!

[@paperkawaii]

+Panda Lover So glad she liked it 😃💕

[@alateramartin2008]

Super cute book! And i love modular origami!

This is the best thing EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@emmahi7249]

this is so cute love it no matter what type of folding it is!!😊😀😁

[@simonsaysmeow699]

Paper Kawaii, this is great, but you should show more clearly where to put the glue. :)

[@boojay111]

I clicked on the paper cutters bur I couldn't find yours with the separate base and cutter, did you 'doctor' an original and created two separate pieces please?

[@danishsiddiqui6317]

BRILLIANT WORK......IT WAS VERY SIMPLE AND EASY.

[@abigailacorda]

Even though im happy

[@saradoutre3099]

I was hoping you cold help me out. I'm creating my own DIY "free style" magnetic eyeshadow palette. Do you have any ideas what types of paper I could use? The paper needs to be strong and durable yet easy enough to fold. Since it will be housing powder product, I need the paper to be able to be wiped off if dirty. I really appreciate your input.

[@paperkawaii]

Sara Doutre I'm sorry I'm not really sure... you could look for plastic sheets of paper.. they are mostly see-through.. strong durable paper is hardly ever easy to fold.. :)

[@umikhamis3555]

Wonderful work thanks . Hope to do this with my students. Sure they wil like it

[@isabellahernandez4832]

do you start with the white side facing up or down? By the way I have one sided paper so... lol

[@samlovesjesuschrist]

That was so easy to do, Thanks😃my came out really good, nice job👍

[@codydelossantos9239]

i just saw this today and tried to make one, this tutorial is awesome! thanks!
