The Origami Forum

Hey all, I was trying to get into the spirit this winter, and I wanted to fold a nice Christmas model.

It could be a snowflake, Christmas tree, whatever.

If anyone has recommendations, please share.

Thanks.

My favorite christmas origami character is Santa by Hideo Komatsu. Here's a link to a picture and CP: http://www.origami.gr.jp/~komatsu/gallery/santa.html

Thanks for the share, but I forgot to add for it to please be a diagram, no CPs.

well, there are a couple of nice origmi christmas books out there. maybe you'd like to spend some bucks.

I could have said that, I was just asking for any models that you guys have folded.

But oh well.

You can find several diagrams here:

This is 2008 Christmas Tree that I made at "The Garden of Archimedes" a museum for math in Florence, Italy

Simple and nice looking models with animation instructions and/or diagrams.

I love these, especially A Santa2 model. 10-20 steps on each so you can easily decorate your whole house with christmas origami.

Happy folding.

p.s sorry for my english.

Firstly, do Giang Dinh's Santa (diagrams in Nicolas Terry's website). Secondly, fold tonnes of stars from Manuel Sirgo's book, Origami Menagerie.
Next fold the various snowflakes my origamimasterjared on his Origami Weekly page.
Lastly fold a Ryujin 3.5 and place it as the centrepiece !

I have a couple holiday-themed diagrams on Flickr...

By far the most viewed items in my Flickr gallery are my Holiday Star diagrams. My Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/oriholic

I also did a couple Snowflakes for Origami Weekly. Week 1 was a CP, and Week 2 was the diagrams for one version. Origami Weekly: http://www.flickr.com/photos/origamiweekly

Cheers!

ORI_Q's Santa is awesome, if you are familiar with wetfolding. This is his photostream.
