Freja spend a lot of time folding fortune tellers. Inspired by the 3 R’s blog we’re making a lampshade with these wonderful paper creations.

Instructions

  1. Small 107338 2f2015 02 09 102403 fortuneteller lampshade pb 2013 4

    Start by folding fortune tellers – lots of them. Freja folded over 60 fortune tellers in origami paper. Have you forgotten how to fold fortune tellers, good tutorials can be found online.

    Then glue the fortune tellers on to the lampshade. We tested a couple of different ways to glue the fortune tellers and was most pleased with working horizontally. I used a glue gun and managed to burn a few fingers in the process. A glass of water to stick your burned fingers in is recommended.

    Our fortune teller lampshade turned out a little crooked, but we love the result nonetheless.
