Origami Kawasaki Rose Video Tutorial

Learn how to make an origami kawasaki rose designed by Toshikazu Kawasaki. This is the full pre crease and assembly.

I hope you will find this video tutorial easy to follow, this is the way I find the easiest to make sure the rose turns out well.

You will need:
1 x square paper, I used 21 x 21cm paper in the video.
3 paper clips (optional)

I have also made a video which is from a different angle to show the assembly of the rose again. Watch that below.

I actually prefer this rose compared to version 2, which has the triangular squash folds, I find it gets too messy, but I may make a tutorial for that one too..

Please comment below if you made one, let me know how it went, and please give feedback on the tutorial, I am always trying to make my tutorials better and easier to follow.

Your video helped me actually complete the rose for the first time. I have tried and tried different diagrams and tutorials that did not show the steps I would always have an issue with. When I watched your video it all suddenly made sense to me and I understand why I could not finish before. Thank you so much and I have already tried a few others and same thing as this one, I can now complete them.

Enjoyed this! In some ways it is similar to a rose pattern I learned from a friend years ago, but different enough that a good tutorial is a very nice thing to have. ^_^ This pattern seems a bit more versatile. I like that you can leave it as a bud or make an open rose. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing this tutorial!

I had made several attempts to make a kawasaki rose with no success until I stumbled across your website.

Your video tutorial was simple and easy to follow. I really liked how you could teach the viewers without having to say a word on how its done! It was definitely helpful to have two different points of view on how to make this. So thank you very much and keep up with the great work 🙂
