A good pair of hands and some paper, basically.
But, you do need some tools to get started:
| Paper - The right type of paper is
essential to get the proper effect. Its texture, design, thickness, ability to fold well
without tearing, cracking or peeling, all contribute towards a beautiful result. However,
remember that any old bit of paper will do as well. I regularly fold discarded bits of
paper or bus tickets in to little Cranes that kids enjoy to receive. |
| Marking tools - Pencils, etc |
| Measuring tools - A scale, dividers
(maybe). |
| Cutting tools - Good knife, Scissors, and
blades to trim paper to the required sizes. |
| Others - Sometimes, you may need to use
glue. Or perhaps paint your paper in a specific shade or pattern. Marbling, dyeing,
spraying. Starching and ironing. Generally, any type of aids you may need for a
crafty-arty hobby. |
| My favourite, of course is this trusty old Swiss Army
Knife, that holds all the tools I need to work with. |
I'm sure I've missed a few (or many) things here - so you
