Create a waste paper bin | Creative Bloq

Paper models have been around for centuries, probably as early as the days of papyrus paper. In China, paper was used for kites over 2,000 years ago, and paper models of all kinds are still popular in many countries today. Called paper-card modelling in Europe, it spans the range from simple folded paper objects to complex three-dimensional models of aeroplanes, ships, buildings and so on.

Paper-card is the key material for this medium, so it's relatively cheap, easy to produce and process, and it can be recycled after use.
