Do your own Origami!

In the early beginnings, Origami art was used as a greeting card for, as an example, a valuable gift. Nowadays you can do the same and fold your best paper with love and art and offer it or simply use it for decoration.

Origami follows 3 simple rules that you must use in your first origami experience. When you crease your paper, be sure to flatted quite well for a successful model, unless of course the instructions tell you otherwise. You can reinforce a crease by running the side of your thumbnail along the fold, or even use some sort of tool.
The instructions are very important so you should follow them, read each description very carefully, and look at each detail of the picture.

Be patient, look at Origami as a contemplative and relaxing activity. If you are just learning how to make origami, try not to rush through the instructions and give yourself time to work it out threw the process.

To start your Origami you can take a quick look at the website www.origami-fun.com and easily learn how to make a bird, a flower or even a heart.

Enjoy your self with the all possibilities of paper!
