Paper Jewelry-Making with Origami Techniques
A course presented by Mayumi Fukuda, Origami Jewelry Artist
Consider this post a reminder of Mayumi Fukuda's popular online
origami jewelry-making course for Domestika. First featured when it launched this past summer, the class
has gone on to attract more than 2800 students and has a 97% positive
review rating. And now you might be lucky enough to attend at no cost, just
for entering this 3-winner international giveaway! [ENDED]
Mayumi Fukuda has combined the delicate art of origami and the creative craft of
jewelry design to create a bespoke collection of products. Her work has
been featured in museum shops in Museu Oriente and the British Museum,
as well as in publications like
Ma Vie. Now she will teach you her tricks and techniques to create your own origami jewelry.
I
have taken the course and thoroughly enjoyed it. The lessons move along
at just the right pace, are well-organized, and are packed with
information. Have a look at the trailer:
If you're an origami novice, you'll learn to create unique paper jewelry, and if you're already familiar with jewelry-making, not to worry... it is always enlightening to see another artist's process in action.
Mayumi teaches you to fold solid paper
jewelry using the traditional Japanese Modular Origami technique. You'll learn to paint your own pattern design, as well as her tried and true method of making your creations
water-resistant.

Sample Reviews
This
course is incredibly fun and incredibly inspiring. The step-by-step
instructions are very detailed, so you can easily create the most
beautiful pieces of paper jewelry yourself.
I
love how Mayumi took time to honour the history of origami and shares
her influences in making her design. The sample is short and easy.
Inspires you to go beyond the basic!
I
absolutely loved this course, Mayumi Fukuda is excellent at explaining
which materials and techniques to use, as well as why and when to use
them. There are also so many additional resources for materials and
tutorials that are outside the scope of this course so you can continue
to explore origami if you want to.
