How to make a budding & half-bloom Kawasaki rose

(page 1)

This page is for those who want the instructions to fold a budding & half-bloom Kawasaki rose flower. The original designer of this rose is Toshikazu Kawasaki and the model was shown in a book, "Origami for the Connoisseur (1987)". The method I am using for folding somewhat different from the book. If you find any bugs on this instruction, please send an email to .

You may use any kind of paper to fold the Kawasaki rose flower (*it is easier if the front and the back side of the paper are slightly different whether it be in texture or color).

Make sure the paper that you use is a square (all sides are equal and all the angles equal 90 degrees). The paper I am using here is 20cm x 20cm square one.
