Origami

As Google has probably already told you today marks the 101st anniversary of Akira Yoshizawa's birth (never heard of him and think Google must have forgotten to celebrate last year). Apparently he was a master of Origami and so I thought I would share some of my own creations.

Most of them came out of a book I bought in Bude 'Origami: The Complete Guide To The Art Of Paper Folding'. It's a really good book for beginners and experienced 'paper folders' alike. 

A flower

The magic frisbee

A Peace Dove

 A nodding doggy

Tulips

and even some practical ones I use around the house.

Boxes to keep pesky pennies in....

and in my jewellery box....

....to keep it nice and organised

I've also made some modular ones too like the cube and the star....

...which the OH has on his desk at work....arrrrr isn't that sweet :-D
