Origami Camera Folding Instructions

Origami Envelope

Write your note on the paper then fold it into an envelope! And no glue needed! The paper simply tucks into itself.

Love the simplicity of this origami design... and very practical too!

Origami Basket, Bunny and Chick for Easter

Easter is almost here and it's the perfect time to fold origami basket, bunnies and chicks! There's no salmonella and or other bacteria to worry about with these origami :)

Here's an origami basket to hold your easter goodies:

Here's an easy origami bunny head for the very young kids:

Finally, fold an origami chick but why stop there? You can fold an entire family! I use a 3 inch square paper for the baby chicks and a 6 inch square origami paper for the "mother".

Origami sighting!

We were watching the movie "Con Air" on tv and there was a scene in the movie where Nicholas Cage's character was in prison and received an origami flapping bird from his daughter! Had to pause the tv to take this picture!
















The origami flapping bird is sure a popular one. Last time, we saw it in the tv series "Medium".

Creepy Crawly Origami Spider

Check out this 8-legged origami spider! Is it cool or what? :)















This one's still sitting on my desk coz it's still fun to look at! Do try folding one yourself! Here are the folding instructions:

Modular Origami Pinwheel

This is a great looking origami but does require some patience. If you don't mind having to fold the same unit/module 8 times, then you're more patient than me! :)
















The assembly is a bit tricky initially but once you get the hang of it, it really wasn't too bad.

Origami Vase for your Origami Flowers

If you've made the origami flowers, then you might want an origami vase to hold your flowers. At least, I did!

I first made this easy origami vase with a regular 6" square origami paper. The vase turned out good but was a bit too small to hold more than one flower.

















So then I used an 8 1/4" square origami paper and made a larger vase which held the origami day lilies shown below.


If you don't have the large origami paper, Amazon has some selection and there's a great 4-for-Price-of-3 sale going on. I've stocked up on the larger origami paper myself, thanks to the sale.
