Extreme Origami

Christmas present from my wife. I like money origami because the material, which is money$$ is easily available.

Inside the book, there are 20 pieces of dollar size paper to use for folding. However, some designs need to use 2 pieces of paper. 

There are total of 20 designs, from butterfly to racing car. Previously I have folded the Koi fish with RM10, and some other models.

Stay tune for some money origami very soon.....

Year of the Dragon 2012

To fill in the "missing" yearly post...

This Eastern dragon is folded from 2 pieces of square paper, joined in the middle of the body. The design is from Jun Maekawa, from the book "Genuine Origami". Time taken to fold is about 3 hours.

A Bouquet of Flowers

Most girls just love flowers besides handbags, shoes, clothes, fragrance, cosmetics, etc =) A half dozen of real roses will be about RM50-60 and one dozen would be around RM100. Prices will varies depending of what type of flowers and wrapping style. It will be much much cheaper if purchase from Cameron Highlands. Maybe RM10 will get 10 fresh roses, minus the wrapping. 

With RM10, an origami flower with a single leaf can be made (by Stephen Hecht). Here is a bouquet of three flowers with wrapping. Happy International Women's Day on the 8th of March 2011.
