Geometric forms. A paper composition to hang.
Geometric paper mobile SVG.
Shape, spacing and a little play.
Facet Flow is an original geometric paper mobile SVG for 3 flat paper pieces: one hexagonal frame, one diamond drop and one circle drop. Three SVG files supply the cut contours, with an English preparation guide and reference images. Use your own paper and cord, choose the spacing and assemble the display by hand. No fixed overall height is specified.
A study in geometric paper.
A display you arrange.
Facet Flow turns a geometric theme into a hanging paper composition. Choose paper colours for the supplied flat pieces, then arrange them with your own cord and suitable support. The cutting templates leave the spacing and display setting to you, so you can make the composition your own.
One broad hexagonal frame has a hexagonal centre window, one top round suspension hole and two lower round connector holes. Two separate pendants hang below: a diamond with a triangular window and a circle with a diamond-shaped window. Each pendant has one round top hole. All three pieces remain connected flat paper shapes.
The images illustrate a possible finish and setting. This is a digital download; physical cards or decorations, paper, adhesive, envelopes, tools, suspension supplies and styling props are not included.

| SVG document pages | 01-hexagon-frame-cut.svg: 112 × 124 mm; 02-diamond-drop-cut.svg: 52 × 70 mm; 03-circle-drop-cut.svg: 50 × 50 mm; 6 mm page margins |
| Cut operations | 11 red (#FF0000) closed cut contours per complete set; centered 0.025 mm strokes, no fill |
| Hanging and suspension holes | Five 3 mm nominal suspension holes per set: one at the top and two near the lower sides of the hexagonal frame, plus one at the top of each drop |
| Construction | Flat cut silhouettes; no folded sculpture, interlocking joinery, scoring or engraving |
| File use | Cut each of the three SVGs once to make one hexagonal frame and two separate geometric drops. The hexagonal frame has a hexagonal centre window; the diamond drop has a triangular window, and the circle drop has a diamond-shaped window. These are flat papercut pieces, with no folded facets or three-dimensional construction. |
| Design details | One broad hexagonal frame has a hexagonal centre window, one top round suspension hole and two lower round connector holes. Two separate pendants hang below: a diamond with a triangular window and a circle with a diamond-shaped window. Each pendant has one round top hole. All three pieces remain connected flat paper shapes. |
| Arrangement and size | A hexagonal paper frame suspended above a separate diamond drop and circle drop. Overall height, cord lengths, spacing and supports are chosen by the maker |
| Material planning | Plain, uncoated paper or cardstock approved for the exact machine and wavelength, with enough strength for the intended hanging display |

Check the files and dimensions
Cut each of the three SVGs once to make one hexagonal frame and two separate geometric drops. The hexagonal frame has a hexagonal centre window; the diamond drop has a triangular window, and the circle drop has a diamond-shaped window. These are flat papercut pieces, with no folded facets or three-dimensional construction. Check each actual piece size after import: Hexagon frame: 100 × 112 mm; Diamond drop: 40 × 58 mm; Circle drop: 38 × 38 mm. The document pages include margins. Preserve the common scale if you want the illustrated proportions.
-
Cut and release each piece
Map all 11 red contours to vector Cut, then preview the job. There are no score or engraving operations. Cut internal openings before releasing outer silhouettes where your software permits. Test the approved stock first and remove waste carefully without pulling narrow sections.
-
Arrange, tie and inspect
Suspend the hexagonal frame from its top round hole. Tie separate maker-supplied cords to its lower left and right round holes. Join one to the diamond-drop top hole and the other to the circle-drop top hole. Adjust lengths, balance and support. No fixed finished display height is specified. The illustrated arrangement places the diamond on the left and the circle on the right. Dry-arrange the complete display before installation. Select cord that passes through the holes without forcing or tearing them, and inspect your own knots, hole margins and display support.
This design has not been physically test-cut, assembled, strength-tested or mounting-tested. Paper, grain direction, kerf, cord tension and display support affect the result. Make a complete prototype and inspect your own suspension arrangement before gifting, selling or installation.

What is included with this geometric paper mobile SVG?
The ZIP includes 01-hexagon-frame-cut.svg, 02-diamond-drop-cut.svg, 03-circle-drop-cut.svg, README.txt, cut-map.png, assembled-reference.png. Cut each of the three SVGs once to make one hexagonal frame and two separate geometric drops. The hexagonal frame has a hexagonal centre window; the diamond drop has a triangular window, and the circle drop has a diamond-shaped window. These are flat papercut pieces, with no folded facets or three-dimensional construction. The PNGs explain dimensions and a possible arrangement; they are visual references, not machining files.
How are the paper pieces arranged?
Suspend the hexagonal frame from its top round hole. Tie separate maker-supplied cords to its lower left and right round holes. Join one to the diamond-drop top hole and the other to the circle-drop top hole. Adjust lengths, balance and support. No fixed finished display height is specified. The illustrated arrangement places the diamond on the left and the circle on the right. The layout is an illustrative option, rather than a fitted construction or a guarantee of display strength.
Are cord and mounting materials included?
Five 3 mm nominal suspension holes per set: one at the top and two near the lower sides of the hexagonal frame, plus one at the top of each drop. Provide your own suitable thin cord and display support. Check that the cord fits without force and that the paper holds the chosen arrangement. No cord, support bar, mounting hardware or finished display is supplied, and no load rating is specified.
Can I resize or repeat the motifs?
Yes. Keep related pieces at the same proportional scale to preserve the illustrated balance, and recheck every opening, narrow section and cord hole. The supplied sizes are Hexagon frame: 100 × 112 mm; Diamond drop: 40 × 58 mm; Circle drop: 38 × 38 mm. Changing scale also changes hole sizes and paper strength. Make a fresh prototype after resizing or changing the suspension arrangement.
How do I prepare the SVGs for Glowforge, xTool, Epilog or another laser?
Glowforge: Upload the SVG, check the actual cut dimensions and assign red contours to Cut.
xTool Studio/XCS: Import through software supported by your model. SVG import DPI can affect scale; verify dimensions and assign operations manually.
Epilog: Open the vectors in suitable graphics software. Preserve centered 0.025 mm strokes and output through the driver or Dashboard supported by your model.
Other CO₂/diode systems: For compatible controllers, LightBurn imports SVG. Verify vector operations, usable work area and stock approval for your actual machine and wavelength.
Which paper and settings should I use?
Use plain, uncoated paper or cardstock approved for your exact machine, wavelength and paper-holding method. Confirm unknown coatings, dyes and adhesives before processing. A CO₂-compatible stock is not automatically suitable for a diode laser. Follow the machine maker’s extraction and supervision instructions, and test your own stock. No universal weight, thickness, power, speed or pass count is supplied. The design has not been physically test-cut, assembled, strength-tested or mounting-tested.
Can I sell the paper decorations I make?
Yes. Personal use and sales of finished physical decorations you make are permitted. Do not resell, share, give away or redistribute the digital files, modified digital files or digital parts. Read the included guide for the usage terms. Paper pieces and hanging cords are decorative display materials; use your own suitable installation and keep them away from heat sources.
