This specially designed kit for origami enthusiasts provides all the tools needed to start or perfect the wet-folding technique. Whether you want to add natural curves to your models or strengthen papers that are too thin for complex folds, this kit will support you in all your artistic creations.

Kit Contents:

• 8 mini wooden clips (45 mm): Ideal for gently holding your folds in place while the paper dries, helping maintain curves or complex shapes.
• 1 bamboo tweezer: A precision tool for handling delicate folds without damaging wet paper.
• 1 water sprayer 50 ml: For controlled and even moistening of the paper, allowing smooth and flexible folding.
• 1 pre-creasing stylus: Allows for precise marking of folds, ideal for pre-creasing complex models or tessellations, and for manipulating internal flaps of a model without tearing.
• 1 A5-size plastic pouch: Practical and compact, this pouch allows you to store and easily transport your kit.
  Select the color of the pouch from the options above.

Applications:

• Wet-Folding: Allows you to work with thicker papers and add volume to models. By slightly moistening the paper, you can create natural and fluid shapes.
• Methylcellulose (MC): Used to strengthen very thin papers like tissue paper. This product is particularly appreciated by folders to give rigidity to delicate creations and maintain complex shapes.

Why choose this kit? Whether you are a curious beginner or an expert looking for new challenges, this kit is an essential accessory for exploring advanced folding techniques. Thanks to its practical and versatile tools, it allows you to experiment with creating more expressive and detailed models while ensuring precise and careful handling of your papers.

Usage Tips:

1. Fill the water sprayer and lightly moisten the surface of the paper to be folded.
2. Use the wooden clips to hold complex folds in place while drying.
3. Use the scoring stylus to mark precise folds without tearing, and to reverse folds gently.
4. To strengthen very thin papers, apply a solution of methylcellulose (not included) to the paper before folding, and let it dry before handling.
