it is nice to fold if you aren't rough with it and let it dry for a day or two
__________________________________________________________________________________________
instructions on how to make it
1)you need two pieces of foil ( the same size ).
2)you need whit glue.
3)you need something to spread the glue around with (I used a broken pocket knife).

so lets get started.
take one of your foil piece and put some glue and spread it around with the spreading thing if there is just a thin lair of glue (if you have to much take some off and if you don't have enough put some more on). then put the other foil piece and place it on top of your first foil. what a day or more. make sure it the glue has dried before using it <- if you don't it will be the worst to fold trust me. when the glue is not dry the foil rips and you get glue all over :(

the results are good the texture is good for animals like the elephant, rhino, and dinosaurs.

added more pictures

Double foil? I will try it out, but it sounds hard to keep the paper from wrinkling.

EDIT: I didn't really like it :(

I used spray adhesive, so it doesn't get glue on my hands or rip, but its not very clean at all. It gets too crumpled.
