Project #15: Paper Me

Filed under: favorites, paper, self-portrait by ramune

This past week I have been quite busy working on my resume and my website. Although working on my resume has involved creativity, I doubt anyone wants to see it (unless you are looking to hire me . . . wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean). If you do want to see it, it will be up on my portfolio site once it is all polished up.

Back to this week’s creative project! Ever since I saw the paper dolls at Readymech, I have wanted to create my own. After spending some time trying to come up with a character, I decided to do a self portrait of sorts. I have included some photos as well as a pdf so you can print out and build your own little me (if you really want a small boxy version of me staring at you). Unfortunately my printer is not that great and colors tend to look better on screen, so the colors are a bit off in the constructed version. Also, I won’t be offended if you cut my thumbs off, they can be a bit of a pain to cut around.

The pattern to be printed, cut out and assembled.

The constructed version.

Me and my boxy smaller self.

    I LOVE this project. A mini-you is now sitting on my desk. Also, I propose making this our own “travel gnome” and taking photos of mini-you all over the world! (or at least the general Boston area…)

    What do you think?

    Ooo! That could be fun! I will have to print it on card stock if I want it to last.

    So cute!! I can’t wait to make a mini-you of my very own…eating a piece of mini-bacon and drinking a mini-mint julep.
