Giraffe trophy designed by OXYGAMI.
Hello papercraft lover! Do you want to make your own paper wall trophy without the headache?
Then download this PDF pattern and turn it into a lowlopy yet realistic doe-eyed giraffe for your living room, your bedroom or your home office. And don't forget to be proud when it's finished!
Watch the giraffe's head grow before your eyes as the angles magically take shape. So relaxing and so gratifying!
A mere pin or nail is all it takes to hang this light but sturdy giraffe head on the wall, just like a picture frame.
This doe-eyed giraffe has a refined design, can be assembled by a motivated beginner, and is perfect for those ‘crafty’ Sunday afternoons when the mood is light and music is humming in the background.
Get ready for several hours of fun and mindfulness!

[WHAT OTHER CREATIVES ARE SAYING]
----------------------------------------------------------
"This is designed and numbered so well I didn't need to use the instructions. I wouldn't say this is easy, but it's not very difficult. I like the open horns for beginners, but the OCD in me wants to have them closed. I always enjoy making your designs. This will be OK for a beginner, because it's so nice. Worth the effort."
