= Kusudama
{wiki=Kusudama}
Kusudama is a traditional Japanese paper craft that involves creating a spherical model by assembling multiple folded paper pieces, often using origami techniques. The word "kusudama" translates to "medicine ball" in Japanese, as these decorative spheres were historically used to hold herbal medicines or as a way to promote health and wellness. Typically, a kusudama is made by folding several identical paper units, which are then assembled and glued or stitched together to form a 3D shape.
