FOLDING AN ORIGAMI FOXGLOVE
This foxglove is not really difficult to fold. On the bottom of this page is a link to printable coloured
patterns for this foxglove, if you want to make exactly the same flower as I do.
Step 1:
This paper is for the flower.
Step 2:
This is the backside of the paper.
Make a valley-fold over this line.
Step 3:
Make a valley-fold over this line.
Step 4:
Roll up the model from the left, so you get a tube shaped model.
Then, hold the model the same as I do in the picture of step 5.
Step 5:
The bottom-edge of the model in the picture of step 4 is on the right
in the picture of step 5
Press the model flat on the right and make a valley-fold over
this line. Make this fold over all layers of the model.
Step 6:
Make a valley-fold over this line.
Step 7:
Press on the model from both sides at the places indicated by
the 2 arrows. You make a sort of valley-fold over the yellow line
when you do this.
Step 8:
Press a piece of the edge on the left in this picture to the inside of
the model (=mountain-fold), see the pink arrows. Press more of the
edge at the large arrow to the inside then on the places indicated
by the smaller arrows.
Step 9:
Make about 24 of these flowers for one complete foxglove.
Step 10:
You can use this leaf for making the complete foxglove.
Click here if you want to see diagrams for this leaf
Make about 12 of these leaves.
Click here if you want to see diagrams for making a stem
Glue 2 of these stems together to make one large stem.
Take a nice vase and fill it with foam. Curl the bottom of the stem
and insert this curled piece in the foam. The stem can't move very
easy when you've curled the bottom of it.
Glue the bottoms of the flowers to the stem and arrange them
the same as I did in the picture on the left.
Insert the leaves in the foam around the bottom of the stem.
If you find it
difficult to insert the leaves in the foam, you can first
make holes in the foam with a pencil or something else.
