I’ve been a member of a site called Craftster.org for almost as long as I’ve been origami videos. It’s a great community site for people who want to share pictures, ideas and advice on all the different kinds of crafts they love to make. Members will periodically arrange craft swaps and they also run themed [...]

Waa Waa Waaaaaaaaaaaaa

Hear’s how to make an origami Cicada. Sometimes these things are called locusts… These are the things that leave those creepy exo-skeletons on trees and go waa-waa-waaaaaaaaa in mid and late summer.

Kae-gu-ri

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 22:48:57 +0000

So I may or may not have mentioned that I’m half Korean – I honestly can’t remember. I only bring it up now to explain the title of this post… Kae-gu-ri is Korean for frog… and instead of saying “ribbit,” they say “kae-gu.” With that said, I bring you this week’s video – how to [...]

Crazy Origami Concept

Thu, 25 Feb 2010 23:37:48 +0000

Check out this crazy origami inspired mp3 player concept spotted on Yanko Design… The idea is that you’d fold the player so that it would take on the shape of traditional play, stop, fast forward / skip and rewind / back buttons and would actually perform those functions. I think that’s pretty slick… I already have an [...]

Hotter under the water…

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 22:45:49 +0000

Here’s the latest and greatest… well it’s not so great… just average I’d say. This week’s video shows you how to make a seahorse. It’s made from the fish base, and I show you how to do a rabbit ear fold as well. In other news, I’ve been working on various origami [...]

Make something nice for your hunny… and don’t forget to make something nice for your mom. I also include two NEW videos. [...]

An overly complex origami heart

Sun, 31 Jan 2010 19:57:15 +0000

This video show’s how to make an origami heart. Sure there, are easier hearts to make, like this one, but the method I show in the video uses square paper without any cuts… most hearts I’ve seen require cutting or rectangular paper (like the change of heart fold I made last year).

More bookmark theory

Sun, 24 Jan 2010 22:49:45 +0000

I continue last week’s lesson on how to make custom origami book marks. Last week started with the water bomb base, and this week I’m using the square base.

Don’t lose your place… with style

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 00:10:46 +0000

I try to do something a little different in this video. I show you how to make an origami book mark, but I talk a little bit about the basic principles so that you can play around and develop your own design. You can use square or rectangular paper to make these bookmarks based on [...]

Phoenix… or a little crane with a diferent tail

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 10:06:52 +0000

This video shows how to make an origami phoenix… or as a friend say, “just a little crane with a different tail,” (that friend is very literal and has no imagination)… but it’s good that they bring up the resemblance to a crane. I recommend mastering how to make an origami crane before trying to [...]
