Paper Craft Ukulele

It's like origami. You can download this mini ukulele, fold and glue it, and have a perfectly adorable paper ukulele. Don't know what you'd do with it after that though.

A teeny, tiny paper ukulele!

Ukulele Fretboard Note Chart

Rather than play chords, which I find boring, I play by reading music. It's an interesting process to learn, made more difficult by aging eyesight, but it opens up a world of musical possibilities. This fretboard illustration comes from Ukulele Underground senior member, "Dane." You can find the original post on Ukulele Underground.

 This is what he said about his creative process:

"I used part of one of the images of the uke from this URL :
http://www.acousticvibesmusic.com/ca...?cPath=170_171

And the image which I stole the colors from is from this URL :
http://www.nutthouse.com.au/ukulele/chords.html  "

It looks really intimidating (and pretty - look at all those colors!) but it's easier than you may think. Try it and learn something new today.
