How to Fold Origami Ball Kusudama - 12 Curler Units Flower Cuboctahedron

In this tutorial, I'll show you step-by-step how to fold an origami ball or kusudama. This origami ball uses 12 curler units and forms a cuboctahedron. It's an origami project you can do at home when you have some spare time. Such a lovely paper craft! :)
WARNING: This might be hard for beginners to assemble!
HINT: Always twist curls in the same direction, whether it's clockwise, or counter-clockwise. Using sturdy paper will help the curls hold better. Curls can be as tight, or as loose as you want them. As long as it stays together, it'll look great! As a reminder, to create the cuboctahedron, every square is surrounded by 4 triangles, and every triangle is surrounded by 3 squares. Moreover, you can make it larger (and prettier!) if you use 30 units, instead of 12. To assemble 30 units (icosidodecahedron), form pentagons and triangles. Every pentagon is surrounded by 5 triangles. Every triangle is surrounded by 3 pentagons.

What size are the pepper 3x3 or 4x4

[@OrigamiTree]

I believe I used 3x3 in this video. But you can also use 4x4. It doesn't matter as long as its a square. 4x4 might be easier to work with though.
