Post by stuckie27 »

I am entering two items of origami into my county fair,

One origami piece, still undicided or un folded

and a flower arrangement (sounds girly but I enjoy it)

I was thinking of entering some Origami in a craft fair at Cumberland Falls Lodge,but didn't because it was mostly "folk" crafts and was covered in tourists.(The Moonbow happened to be in perfect view at night) I fold flower arrangements only to make my coworkers(all women except me) and my girlfriend happy,but it does get alot of looks from the library patrons.

I have decided to fold an african theme. I have a Elephant by montroll from origami sculptures and a rhino from brill and a zebra from monroll again.

All from tissue foil.

I think I will fold a giraffe by Engel.

Well done!

I'd love to see the pics of the jungle scene, since I am considering making a display for my local library.

Although being able to fold the Magic Rose Cube (quite badly at that), I'd love to see pics of your sisters attempt. It's because I can never get mine right!

No matter what paper typer I use most of my MRC tend to fall apart in either mine or the spectators hand (very embarrasing!).

At least when you fold the spring into action you know that it will never let you down like that!

lol
