Paper Craft School

Describing a wide range of skills in paper crafts, this book shows the beginner how to create original art forms, including pop-ups, origami, weaving, collage, paper-making, papier mache, and paper sculpture. It explains techniques such as folding, curling, scoring and embossing, in each case culminating with a finished sample using an animal motif, to be incorporated in a framed menagerie sampler. Also included are an overview of how paper has developed over the years, and details of the materials, tools and equipment (mostly everyday household items) that are required for the projects.
