Zincite Kusudama (Designed by Aditya Kumbhare)

History

This next design is another one I am very proud of. The base I used for this design is completely original, not based off of one of my previous designs. Each piece has two extra spikes which give the final product a sea-urchin look. I named it the Zincite kusudama after the Zincite (Zinc oxide) crystal, an incredibly rare red and orange gemstone.

The final product used 30 pieces of Tuttle paper, each with a different color on the back.

Disclaimer: the size of the paper that can be used isn't limited to the sizes I used! As long as the paper is square, it will work. Just make sure to choose a paper size that you are comfortable folding with!
