Hi, I'm new here, don't know much about origami, but had an idea for our wedding.
A friend of mine told me about an origami flower, that you put in water , and would open then
Is this possible ? And if so, anyone who's got an idea how to make it

Yep, there was mention of such a thing a while back on the origami mailing list:

Janina Weinand found out, that a windmill-base works pretty well for this purposes: http://hometown.aol.de/_ht_a/origamiwor ... rblume.htm
