Garden - Sunflowers, Bees & Ladybirds

Bring the garden indoors with this first collection of designs - bright, cheerful, and perfect for a spring window display.

The Sunflower is as bold and joyful as the real thing. For this design, you will need sixteen pieces of yellow paper for the petals, and one piece of brown for the centre. It's a wonderful showstopper on its own or as the centrepiece of a larger garden scene.

Next, the Bee adds a touch of whimsy to any window. You will need one piece of yellow, one piece of white, and one piece of black - a simple combination that produces a surprisingly charming result.

Complete your garden with the Ladybird - a favourite with little ones. For this design, you will need two pieces of red paper and three pieces of black. Pair all three garden designs together for a window scene that feels like a sunny afternoon in the backyard. 🌈

Spring & Winter - Bunnies, Snowdrops & Snowflakes

From the first days of spring to the quiet beauty of winter, this collection captures the magic of the changing seasons.

We recommend starting with the Snowflake, as we'll reference its folds throughout many of the other designs in this guide - mastering it early makes everything that follows feel more intuitive. For this design, you will need eight pieces of paper in either white or light blue.

The delicate Snowdrop is a lovely companion to the snowflake. You will need one piece of white paper and two pieces of green - simple in its materials, but beautiful in the finished result.

And for a touch of springtime charm, the Bunny is sure to delight. You will need three pieces of white paper and one piece of pink, cut into quarters.

Weather & Everyday - Clouds, Carrots & Autumn Leaves

Some of the most magical window displays are built from the everyday - the weather outside, the season's harvest, and the simple things that make up a child's world.

The Cloud is a wonderfully versatile design that pairs beautifully with almost any other piece in this series. You will need just four pieces of white paper to bring it to life.

For something a little more playful, try the Carrot - a favourite for Easter windows or a whimsical autumn display. You will need one piece of orange kite paper and one piece of green paper cut into four squares.

And rounding out this collection, the Autumn Leaf brings rich, warm colour to your window as the seasons turn. Experiment with different shades of red, amber, and gold for a truly seasonal scene.
