For May the Fourth… EZ Origami Jabba Instructions +more!

11 at 4:15 pm · Filed under Uncategorized

Happy Star Wars Day, SuperFolders! May the Fourth be with you!

20110504-122418.jpg

To celebrate, here are instructions for making Origami Jabba with a bonus Salacious Crumb!
Plus, I’m going to spill a little secret about Darth Paper at the bottom of the post…

And… Congratulations to our contest winner(s) Bridget and Jimmy who guessed that Origami Jabba would be the star today. (Yes, we have two winners. Long story. But they both deserve it!) Bridget and Jimmy, have your parents email me an address where I can mail your prize.

So here are the instructions…

Okay, ready for a little Darth Paper Strikes Back secret?
I hoped to show you the cover today, but it has received final approval yet.
So I’ll mention something it says on the back cover….
“Bonus Game and Origami Instructions”

What do you make of that?

No movie news, just in case you were wondering…. That’s going to take a bunch of people in Hollywood to get excited about the book.

I tried to fold it. Couldn’t. Too hard. So I invented my own Origami Jabba! It’s really simple. I don’t think I could make instructions, Though.

Reply
  Tom Angleberger wrote @ 11 at 9:37 pm

Good! Inventing your own is always good!
That’s how I came up with my Yoda and the book, because the Yoda I wanted (Kawahata’s) was just too hard for me…
