What do the nine pictures show?

Three kirigami templates, a pop-up temple, a folded snowflake and a pop-up tree, each in black line art, printed colour and a children's activity style.

How do I know where to cut and fold?

Solid lines are cuts and dashed lines are folds. A small drawing beside each template shows the finished card or shape.

Which style should I print?

Black line art is the simplest to copy and colour in by hand. The printed colour and children's sheets show the finished look in colour.

Can I ask for a different shape?

Yes, type a subject such as a heart or a castle. That is a request, and the cut pattern may differ from the sample.

Kirigami is a paper craft where you cut a folded card so that a shape stands up when you open it. These nine pictures are printable templates for three kinds: a pop-up temple facade, a snowflake cut from a folded wedge, and a pop-up tree. Solid lines show where to cut and dashed lines show where to fold. Type a different subject, such as a cherry blossom or a castle, and the same cut and fold lines carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
