Japanese Origami Review & GIVEAWAY

This is the Japanese OrigamiPaper pack plus 64-page book by Mari Ono. It comes complete with an instruction booklet and a generous 250 sheets of 15 cm (6 inch) square paper. Step-by-step instructions guide you through 10 paper folding projects. So far I've folded the crane, iris, water lily and decoration box. Instructions are shown via a series of step-by-step photos with text and symbols. All folds and symbols are reviewed at the beginning of the booklet. Each model has a difficulty rating of 1 - 5. The paper pad holds 250 sheets of colorful folding paper. The paper has either an attractive pattern or solid color on one side. There are multiples of each design, which is nice for sharing or sets. I like the papers matte finish. Sheets can be torn off the paper pad as needed - which is handy for keeping things tidy. Sheets come easily and cleanly off of the pad - even from the middle. There's more than enough paper to complete all of the models in the book and then some. The complete table of contents is listed below. CICO Books released the 64 page paperback ‏on September 10, 2019. Get your copy below!

Origami crane.

Origami water lily. I made this model with square paper napkins and then used them informally with our evening meal. It was fun! My boyfriend was amused.
