A collection of ideas for what paper animals can be. All work with step by step photo instructions. Animal crafts occupy most of the work of the site, and the process of their creation is not finished.

As usual, so that you don’t look for interesting options all over the site, I collect tops where I post a brief overview and photos with links to a step-by-step master class. Again, I will clarify that the links do not go beyond the site tratatuha.com. You will not have to go to any left resources. Since there are a lot of paper animals, I will categorize them, depending on the technique used to create this or that craft.
