Thank you, Maria Vakhrusheva, for granting me permission to demonstrate your design!
This beautiful Fiesta kusudama is made from 30 square units. To bring out the design of it, you will need Kami paper or duo colored Origami paper.
The Fiesta Kusudama can be assembled in two different ways: Lesser- and Higher Stalleted Version. The Lesser Stalleted Fiesta is assembled in a 5 cone formation, and the Higher Stalleted Fiesta Kusudama is put together in 3 cone formation. The 3 cone Fiesta seems to fit to hold together slightly better, especially during the assembly stage. So if you are not too familiar with Kusudama assemblies, then go first for the Higher Stalleted Version.
Measurements: I used Kami paper with the measurements of 10 cm x 10 cm / 4 in x 4 in. And the duo paper version measured 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm / 3 in x 3 in. In general, it is always easier to assemble the bigger sizes.
