If you’re looking to get started with origami, or if you want to get in touch with your childhood roots, make some origami balloons/balls! I remember making these as a kid and just bopping them around. They’re easy, don’t take TOO much time, and they’re guaranteed to make you (or someone else) smile. I personally find them very…
I love the look of this origami model. It’s extremely versatile, too. Place flowers into each “hole/opening” and secure with glue for impressive results! Assembly instructions too fast? Real-time assembly instructions are available below! Also check out the Electra-60 (which uses 60 units instead of 30). It also spins! And yes, that’s me, being a complete dork.…
Electra Design: David Mitchell I love, love, LOVE this model. It’s so versatile. Put flowers into each “hole/opening” for a stunning kusudama (like in the photo below). 😉 Also check out Electra-30 (good option if you don’t feel like folding 60 units) HERE. Is the assembly section too fast? REAL-TIME assembly instructions are also available…

In this video, I will show you how to turn the traditional origami lily into a ball! It’s stunning, and easier than it looks! NOTE: I created 24 units (with 48 sheets of paper), but feel free to make less. I personally like the “over-crowded, dense, organized-chaos look,” but some of you may like the…
This phoenix is absolutely gorgeous to look at, with it’s long, wavy tail. 🙂 It has the same body as the traditional origami crane, but the tail is quite different. I love how it waves from side to side. I would really recommended using “real” origami paper for this model because the tail will hold…
I realize that most people associate the term “origami” with paper folding, but I tend to use this term more loosely than most. I mean, you can really fold anything: Paper, napkins, copper sheets…! Right? 🙂 Lately, I’ve been experimenting with napkin folding as well and have created a whole series of napkin models for…
Owls are super cute and fun! 🙂 Here’s a origami (well, kirigami) origami owl. I just love it’s face!
This is the FASTER, DEMO version of Jeremy Shafer’s 10 second fish. I love how it’s so simple, and how it kind of “secures itself” together at that very last step. It’s just a brilliant model, all around, which is why I immediately fell in love with it. Plus, 10 seconds is really no time at…
