Materials and tools:
( Some of the helpful resources are affiliate links. Full disclosure here. )
- I love this good quality card stock, it is easy to work with and holds the shape very well, and some glue.
- an inkjet printer or laser printer
- it is easy enough to print out the templates ( download at the end) and cut with an Xacto knife, but if you have a Silhouette Portrait or Cameo, I have included the cutting file for you as well.
Step 1:
Download and print out the free template (at the end of article, includes both color and black & white designs!). Cut along the outer lines, score around each pentagon shape. Gently fold along each scoreline.
Step 2:
Start with the first half , glue each tab to the back side of the adjacent pentagon, and form half of the dodecahedron.
For the second half, do the same but leave a few of the tabs open, then glue the 2 halves together.
The key is to pay attention when you glue the tabs : I found it easier to assemble the 2 halves, but leave a couple of the tabs loose, then glue the 2 halves together, finish with gluing the last few tabs. Below is a photo from an earlier version, which shows the final step.
Here it is! A one-of-a-kind 3D 2018 calendar perfect for your desk!
