I originally designed this model with just three hearts.

Theoretically, by increasing the length of the paper you can fold as many hearts as desired. Practically, the smaller hearts come out of the larger hears and incorporate more and more layers so the thickness of the smallest heart probably limits the number to about 6 or 7. If you didn’t have to change colors with each progressive heart, the fold would be considerably less complicated.

Next year, maybe I will fold a 5 heart model.

@Gerardo
I love that bag! The idea is great too :)

@Damian
I like how you shaped the cicada very much!

@Edg
I have folded this fox some time ago and I think you can get the ears easier by making this part little more wet.

@topic
I have folded Sipho Mabona's elephant. It's a really great design. I think one of the most perfect I have seen. I love the technice to lock head and tail and it looks so beautiful.
I used tissue foil 22cm.

Awesome... someone likes the bag :). Thank you quiet maverick! The elephant came out amazing, but I specially LOVED the composition you did there.

That's a pretty cool idea first fold :).

sr123ification I simply liked the Unicorn better... but you're right, that's one cool looking dragon.

Laugh, and original creation by Swapnil Das.

My fold doesn't look like Swapnil's but I gotta say I really liked how it turned out ;).

You got an awesome Laugh quiet maverick :P

It was my pleasure sr123ification. It was nice to try something that's out of my comfort zone :). Is Swapnil your first name and Das your last name or is it the other way around?

I made a modular origami picture puzzle cube and added files to the project description to make it possible to modify it using your own pictures :D

Flickr에서 green cube님의 Valentine's Day
Hi guys, yesterday I had my graduation ceremony and it snowed all day along during the ceremony! Best day everrrrrrrr!!!!!!!
Anyway,as always,The Day has come!
Yup, tomorrow is Valentine's day! I'm not sure whether you're a solo or already lovers,so..just go and confess your love to the one you love or celebrate the day with your lover!
It's only one day in every year! When you think you're too fast, you're always already too late, so don't hesitate over confessing :)


P.S
Yellow rose means hurt,jealousy,separation as most people know, but it also means everlasting love... :)

Here are the last things I have folded so far, submissions for the february design challenge:

Compasses

Red cross - the folding sequence here was quite obvious, so if I re-invented the wheel here, I apologize.
It honnestly wouldn't surprise me if somebody came up with this before... :wink:

tortoise beetle, my first idea for this challenge, from a kite base.
