Origami!

I've been doing origami lately. I range from paper 1" wide, to 4" wide. I did finally figure out how to make the turtles, and have been filling a plastic container with the little ones. I recently picked up the larger paper and I have plans to make strings of origami to sell as Christmas decorations - growing up this's how my mother and I decorated our Christmas tree every year. :)

Photos!

Doing it production line-style makes it go faster, but is less rewarding.

"A little bit of this, a little bit of that..." Pieces of everything!

Once I get enough of the big ones, I can start stringing them together for trees, though I may put loops of string on some of the existing small ones so they're ornaments too. Too bad I can't take the fumes of shellac (and they'd probably kill my bird too), otherwise I could make really solid ornaments. Anyone know of similar material with less fumes?

    very nice paper art.
    Zanderpearl your a decent,loving and pretty woman. I know how you feel about this as I have buried myself in your blog many times. You have the eyes of a good human. If your style was in charge there might be worldwide peace. Yet the Devil lives to prove you wrong daily. The first Christians were Jews. Jesus's apostles were actually tortured worse than Christ. Years ago in Beruit. I was captured everyday they would whip me and burn part of my face with a blowtorch. Every time they would demand renounce Christ and we let you die with no pain. My response would be to reach out for blowtorch and yell when I get to hell I'm gonna fuck Mohamed in the ass for eternity. A violent order of Jesuits rescued me and yes Zander we made my captors and their families suffer greatly. The Mormons are the same. They will stop at nothing to destroy the true faith. As fas as being anti semitic. If ever in Rome ask to se the names of the Angels of Jesus. My name is down last to the left. Reason I am there when God took my eye for seeing his message, I murdered dozens of escaped Nazis in south America and East Germany. I am a defender of Jews worldwide. Kill a Jew and Ill kill everyone in THAT family from the dad down to the babies. In June I leave for the Holy Land. I will be part of a team that will enter Lebanon and Hamas. daily and kill as many as we can find. I ain't a Saint or an Angel really. Just a monster that will defend Jews to the Death.

    I see the flapping cranes, but I don't see the turtles.

    Just a curious orgami fan.

    Hey, another origami person! I love making those little animals. It's almost like a zen mantra, isn't it?
