Origami

Recently I have become fond of making origami. I found an amazing website, for those who are interested, it is www.origami-instructions.com. I particularly enjoy making itty-bitty origami. Here are some pictures of the origami I have made. Sorry about the crummy quality of the photos.



Although you can't see very well, there is a little heart, and it opens out into a box
This is flat, but then is becomes a box.... then it is flat again. I use one like it to store pencil shavings during class.
This is what happens when sisters fall asleep on my lap when I'm trying to make origami.
This is my smallest creation yet.
This would be an eight pointed vase if you could see it.
Those are coconut m&ms that we have thanks to Grandpa Jim,  Grandma, and Granddad

This is the same box as the one with the m&ms in it, but I coloured it
You can't really see it, but I drew a little green bow on my box
This is before colouring. The box is about 1" X 1"  X 3/4"
This is a really bad picture of a vase 
Ciao for now,
Florence

  1. Florence your creations are lovely! And so delicate! Did you follow instructions from the website? Maybe you will show me how you do it when I see you?

  2. Florence, Your origami is beautiful. I am going to the web site for more ideas. I often taught origami suggestions in the classroom. The children always enjoyed those lessons.
