Magic in the Paper

Origami! from ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper" it is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. It has evolved into a modern art form.
The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami.
There are so many fun objects you can fold your paper into... here are some gorgeous pic's.
So simple and beautiful in the sun light.
I think this one is for the pro's who also have tiny hands.
Cuuutie!

So Pretty

The crane is a traditional origami model which has been folded for hundreds of years. The crane stands for long life and good luck, and some people think that if you fold 1000 cranes you will be granted a wish!
Using different printed paper makes it exciting.


Wish On a Star
Origami stars have a long tradition in Asian cultures.
They bring good luck when you make them and when you give them away. Making them is fun – and addictive! They're also an opportunity to become aware of, focus on, and share your hopes and dreams.
Sending 1 star is believed to symbolize love.
Building a star is a great way to start off as a beginner.
