5 cm × 10 cm (30 +30) units

I ordered a lot of papers recently. The designer has suggested use of glue for assembly.  I don't like glue business,  because of something goes wrong, it's hard to undo.  You can't remove units and correct.  In the beginning everyone was fine,. Last 5 units,  i got stuck. I thought I didn't wrong and it's gonna go wrong totally.  Which meant waste of 4 hours of labor.  But in the end I got it but it left huge gaps which I couldn't correct because of the glue.  I ordered some nice buttons from meesho. It added glitter ✨️ and I was happy.  

Until next time,

Paper ratio 2:3

I took 5*7.5 cm paper.  30 units

No glue used for assembling.  But it was really hard.  It's a regular sonobe steps, but i was getting lost every now and then.  Assembling the last 5 units would've taken me at least an hour.  No exaggerating. 

Until next time,
