Built my Teacup Kitty papercraft, since I had some time and wanted to show you how cute it looks up-close and all, so I hope you like it ;)
Since it's a “Super simple papercraft” it took me about 3 hours to make it (including cutting out all the pieces), and is overall pretty easy to make. As you can see it consists of many parts that you assemble together separately and then glue together, so I decided to make the teacup first.
You make the cup like you would any simple open craft really, except that I started making it at the top, since you need to glue the “coffee” part on the top and that can be fiddly if you leave it for the end. So, I suggest you make it like me, and start to assemble it at the top, making the edge around the coffee and then the rest of the cup. After that I made the handle and glued it to the cup and you have the cup part ready.
Next, I made the saucers. Those are simple 2D pieces that you glue together, and at the end you put the upper and under part together and glue it, so you get a simple saucer you can put the cut on. Same goes with the spoon, glue upper and under part together, and you have a simple, yet 3D looking, shiny spoon.
And at the end you need to put together the cat. I started by making each of the paws, since they only have 1 piece to assemble together. Next, I made the tail, which has 4 parts you glue, and at the end you have the head. I started the head at both ears and made my way gluing it together till the bottom, since on the bottom part you only have 1 flat piece to close it, so that’s the simplest way to go here. And you can add the 2D whiskers just glued on around his mouth as a finishing touch.
And as simple and fast as that, you have yourself a teacup kitty! The pieces of the cat can be just put in the coffee mug as that, since they will stand on their own and you can move them around. I only suggest to glue the tail on, since it’s rounded and it won’t stand by itself, but other pieces you can move around as you wish. Or you can put weight in the tail, that way you don’t need to glue it on so it stands, but that’s more advanced papercrafting then. Or, you simply glue them on the way you want it to be and you have it like that. In any case, it’s a fun papercraft starter piece for anybody wanting to put a cute cat together and have just fun with it.
