Origami Sonobe Cube Lamp Tutorial

Difficulty: 🌕 🌗 🌑 🌑 🌑 (Medium Easy)

This tutorial shows you how to create Sonobe variation cubes that can either be used as an Origami decoration or Origami lamp.

You can make simple 6 unit cubes to more complex 24 unit cubes.

You will need square, uni colored paper. Origami paper, notes paper and craft paper works best for the Sonobe cube ornament. Choose paper which is around 9 cm x 9 cm/3.5 in x 3.5 in for your first Sonobe cube. At this size the assembly is easy and the Sonobe cube will hold together nicely.

If you are more interested to recreate the Origami Cube Lamp, then choose Tracing Paper. My Sonobe cube lamp paper measured 21 cm x 21 cm/8.3 in x 8.3 in. You might want to use glue to hold your units together, as the paper is too smooth.

Find out more about paper, measurements, Sonobe modules in my article about this Origami project: http://origamitutorials.com/sonobe-cu...

I hope you enjoy this Origami project as much as I do.
