Have you heard of the latest craze? Papercraft! It’s like origami, but with a twist. Instead of folding paper into animals and shapes, you’re creating full-blown models that are perfect for decorating your home or workspace. And the best part? You don’t need any special skills or expensive tools to get started.
Meet Jamie Brock
First up, we have Jamie Brock. She’s a papercraft expert, and lucky for us, she’s sharing her knowledge on HubPages! From floral wreaths to vintage-inspired clocks, Jamie’s creations are nothing short of amazing. If you’re looking for a challenge, check out her 3D hot air balloon or paper carousel. Trust us, these are not your average paper crafts.
Papercraft 3D
If you’re a fan of all things nerdy (like us), you’ll love Papercraft 3D. They have an impressive collection of models inspired by popular video games, movies, and TV shows. Want to build your own Iron Man suit? They’ve got you covered. How about a life-size Pikachu? They’ve got that, too. And if you’re feeling extra ambitious, try their super complicated Star Wars X-wing fighter.
Minecraft Steve
Speaking of video games, we can’t forget about Minecraft. This popular game has a dedicated following, and lucky for us, there are plenty of papercraft models to choose from. One of our favorites is the Minecraft Steve model from Super Coloring. All you need is some cardstock, scissors, and glue to bring Steve to life.
Crafty Cutz
Looking for some free printable paper designs? Look no further than Crafty Cutz. They have tons of patterns that are perfect for paper crafts or scrapbooking. We especially love their holiday-themed designs (Halloween witches! Christmas snowmen!), but they also have plenty of floral and geometric options.
Paper Butterfly
Spring is in the air, and what better way to celebrate than with a paper butterfly craft? This one from Artsy Craftsy Mom is perfect for kids (although we won’t judge if adults want to try it out, too). They even include a free template to make it extra easy.
Printable Monster
If cute and cuddly isn’t your thing, maybe monsters are more your speed. Printablee has a ton of free monster templates that you can print out and assemble. There’s a Frankenstein’s monster, a zombie, and even a werewolf. And don’t worry, they’re not too scary - perfect for Halloween or just for fun.
Paper Plate Crab
Last but not least, we have a paper plate craft that’s perfect for the little ones. This crab from Art, Craft, and Fun is made from a paper plate, construction paper, and googly eyes. It’s easy to make, and the end result is absolutely adorable. Plus, it’s a great way to keep the kids entertained on a rainy day.
So what are you waiting for? Grab some paper and get crafting! With these awesome papercraft models and patterns, you’ll never be bored again. And who knows? Maybe you’ll discover a new hobby that you absolutely love.
