Kusudama, meaning "medicine ball," originally served as holders for incense or potpourri. Today they're used as decorations or gifts. This guide presents instructions for over 40 elaborate modular origami figures that range in shape from stars and flowers to kusudamas. Beginning and experienced folders of all ages will appreciate these unusual and eye-catching models. Review: Beautiful, Unique Models - What I like about this book is the range of kusudama types. There are geometric and floral in a single book, whereas typically, origami books are about one or the other. One of the things that sets this apart from several of the modular origami books I've purchased recently by newer authors is that the diagrams are as thoughtful as the models themselves. The illustrations are simple and clear, even for the more complex constructions. (There is nearly nothing more frustrating than getting halfway through a module only to find that the instructions stop making sense.) I also like that while there are models in here that would be easy for beginner folders to understand, she has models that would challenge more nimble folders. As a folder, the best part about this book to me is that a few of the models evolve off of a single module idea, showing the versatility of a single concept and how it can transform. This concept keeps me curious and trying new methods of construction, and in this way, it is mentally challenging beyond what's on the pages. Review: but the Kusudama itself should be nice and impressive - I’ve bought this book about a year ago; it’s time to share my experience. I make origami kusudama for relaxation and for home décor. That means for me that patterns should be as simple as possible, but the Kusudama itself should be nice and impressive. Ekaterina’s models meet perfectly these both conditions. I can make the parts watching TV and I always hear “wow” from my guests. Models from this book are very easy to understand even for people, who never make any origami. When my teenage daughter wanted to make a special gift for her friend, I just gave her the book and she made a beautiful kusudama in one evening. Children under 10 definitely need an adult’s supervision, especially on the connection stage, but they have fun making modules and be a part of the team. Most kusudamas in this book are very efficient with the paper. It’s important, because the nice, quality paper is expensive, but important for the result and impression. I’m totally satisfied with my purchase and highly recommend this book for everyone, who would like to try this magic – transformation of the simple plane peace of paper into the Beautiful Geometric Ball. ## Features - Dover Publications-Kusudama Origami ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #110,766 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #115 in Origami (Books) #239 in Origami Paper #576 in Paper Craft | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 448 Reviews | ## Images ![Dover Kusudama Origami Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819vHTKk1eL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful, Unique Models *by J***S on February 5, 2014* What I like about this book is the range of kusudama types.
