This kusudama was developed by famous origami master Tomoko Fuse. Tomoko has created many models, including Kusuda, which are placed in more than 60 books. The modules add up quite easily, and the assembly itself is completely uncomplicated. Kusudama has many variations, but the “little turtle”, consisting of 30 modules, looks better than the others.
1. Take 30 square sheets of paper.

Colors can be anything, Kusudama looks good in any performance.
2. Select one sheet. Bend it in half and straighten.

3. Fold along the lines marked in Figure 3. Blue is mountains, red is valleys.

4. Fold the valley along the red line.

5. Move the triangle (it is necessary to turn the selected fold from the valley into a mountain) in the other direction.

6. Fold from step 4 on the opposite side of the module.

7. Fold down the valley.

8. Turn 90 degrees.

9. Fold the mountain in a blue line.

10. Fold the valley in half. Repeat at the back.

11. Fold the valley along the red line, repeat from the opposite side at the back.

12. Make folds from step 12 above the other two ends of the module, but, unlike the previous step, bend them back.

13. Expand the center fold, but not completely.

14. The module is ready. Add another 29.

15. Two connected modules. The end of one enters the other.

16. Three connected modules.

17. Five modules.

18. Ten modules.

19. Continue to assemble the kusudama.

20. The closer you are to the end of the assembly, the more carefully your actions should be.

21. The last module.

22. Kusudama is ready.

If you wish, you can rebuild the kusudama by first turning each module in the other direction. Then the kusudama will look more abstract, as in the picture.
