4 sheets of 3" square papers. I recommend two is kami, one is chiyogami paper and one is gold foil paper. 2 sheets of 6" square kami paper for practice. A bone folder or other folding tool is useful.
2 sheets of 13 1/2 inch (35 cm) square origami paper
6" paper -- 6+ sheets
25 cm Kami ( if you are more comfortable you can use 35 cm too ) If you have it, you can use a thicker duo color paper, as it will make shaping easier. I recommend painted elephant hide, 30 cm
1 sheet of paper
One sheet of 6” / 15cm paper
This model will require 6 sheets of 15 cm (6 inch) Kami. Ideally three sheets of each of two colours.
You will also need the means to make accurate cuts as we will be cutting strips from these sheets.
A single sheet of square 10" kami, strong and thin.
Two rectangles of paper, in any aspect ratio and size. Two sheets of printer paper is fine and a square cut in half is also fine.

1 Sheet of double-sided paper, black and white. (15" x 15")
1 Sheet of silver japanese foil. (6"X6")
Students will need a cutter (blade with a sharp edge) and one page of card stock.

Thin paper is strongly recommended, and kami will not yield the best results for shaping. If you have double-tissue or similar thin crisp paper please bring a 10-12" square. If you are unable to bring your own paper I will provide 12" kraft paper.
6” kami is fine. I will provide some duo kami.
I believe I can make kami work, would prefer tant, but can also bring the type of paper I use in enough quantity.
10" or larger square of paper, ideally the same color on both sides. Tant is best, but Kami will be fine. The model can be completed with 6" Kami, but I recommend a larger sheet for learning it.
