FAQs
Do I need any extra tools to assemble the plants?
The kit is designed to be all-inclusive, though having a flat workspace and perhaps a pair of tweezers for fine details can be helpful.
Are these plants waterproof?
No, they are made of paper and should be kept away from water and high-humidity areas.
How long does it take to assemble one plant?
Assembly time varies by skill level, but most users can complete one plant in approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
Can children assemble these kits?
While it is a great family activity, younger children may need adult supervision due to the precision required for the paper folding.
What is the size of each plant?
Each finished plant measures approximately 14 x 26cm.
Troubleshooting
Paper edges tearing during folding
Use a bone folder or the edge of a plastic card to score lines before folding to reduce stress on the paper fibers.
Plant looks lopsided
Ensure that the initial folds are perfectly aligned; even a millimeter of deviation can compound into a lopsided final shape.
Video guide moves too quickly
Use the playback speed settings in your video player to slow down the tutorial to 0.5x speed while performing the intricate folds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin your assembly, clear a clean, flat surface and ensure you have adequate lighting. Review the printed instruction booklet before starting to familiarize yourself with the folds. For the best results, use the provided video guide to visualize complex steps. Once assembled, these plants are compatible with any indoor climate. To maintain their appearance, keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent ink fading over time, and avoid placing them near water sources or beverages to prevent accidental damage. Dust the plants occasionally with a soft, dry cloth or a gentle puff of air.
