As you maybe already saw, I have released the template of my chibi Salad Miku that you can view here:
And now come some assembly tips to make her yourself as well.
*********************************************************
ASSEMBLY TIPS:
As with all of my papercrafts, start at the top, end at the bottom.
You can assemble the 2 salad-tails separately and then you can make the boxish head next. The head is best made by starting with the front face part, then you glue on the front hair bangs, and only after that, build the remaining head and close it with the top part that has no flaps.
Next, make the 2 hands and the 2 arms all separate. Set those aside and build the first torso part. Once you have that, you can glue inside the head you made and the 2 arms. Then you can glue on the remaining torso part, the overlaying part of the blouse and once those are all set in place, glue on the 2 hands inside at the right angle and that’s done.
Now this is done, you can glue on the 2 salad-tails on the right part of the head and glue on the 2d add-ons, such as the carrot pins and the necktie.
Next you make the dress part and then the legs separately. Once done, glue on the dress with the flaps on it on the torso you have already made at the right angle, and after that the legs.
All that is left to do is to cut out the 2D add-ons you want to use and put them inside her hands. The items can just be put inside her hands, since they stay in place if you fold the hands a bit, but you can also glue them on, if you like.
Also, you can put some weights inside the legs before you glue them on the body to make the crafts stand firmly, but she does stand on her own even without those.

And that’s about it. It’s a really simple craft that should take only a few hours to make, and the pieces are simple and more flat and boxy than anything. I am sure that anybody can do these, as long as they put their mind to it and really want it (it is one of my “super simple papercraft versions” after all. I mean, who doesn’t want to build it, just look at this adorable cutie you can make by yourself.
So, what is this all about? As the name “Super simple papercrafts” suggests, it is a project of really simple papercrafts I make. Since I saw that many people are somewhat intimidated by my intricate designs and overall papercraft really, I wanted to show that it’s not the case and that I wanted to make an effort to make papercrafts available really for any kind of papercrafter, be it beginner, advanced or pro. I decided to address the issue and show that anybody can make papercrafts and therefore designed some fun crafts that REALLY ANYBODY CAN MAKE, super simple and really fast. But most of all, fun!
These papercrafts are simple in design regarding how many pieces there are, they are unfolded a bit bigger to make it simpler to assemble them, they have more detached pieces that you just make and glue on, and still look super sweet and adorable so anybody will want to make them.
You can find all of the “Simple Papercrafts” I designed in my folder:
