Westmill-001 Shoe DIY Paper Toy Postcard #167

The paper is sturdier than I expected for a postcard, so the folded 3D shape actually holds up on my shelf instead of sagging. Took me about twenty minutes to punch out and assemble, and it was a nice quiet evening project.

The little monkey's face is what sold me, and the folding lines are crisp enough that even my clumsy fingers got clean edges. Took about twenty minutes to assemble and it's now perched on my desk looking way cuter than a paper toy has any right to.

I've never built a paper toy like this before and the monkey design came out way cuter than the flat postcard suggested. It took me about twenty minutes to fold and tuck all the little tabs, and now it just sits on my desk making me smile.
