If you're in NYC right now, get your game on looking for some Easter eggs about
town. I found two origami-design eggs...

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone had designed an origami Tesseract...
Here's wiki link for Tesseract...
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesseract
And then to take it one-step further, see this link for a dynamic Tesseract
(I'm calling it that, but wiki page calls it a rotation in 4d space!)

I saw this tweet about an origami Xmas tree at San Francisco City Hall. I was
wondering who worked on the origami for that tree, anyone on this list or from

I just saw this ad for gum. The father makes a little traditional crane out of
the gum wrapper.
It reminds me of how my love for origami started. When I was a kid, my father
made cranes out of chocolate wrappers for us :)

Here's the yTube video of the ad.
Hi there, I had a question re: the very simple model- the paper cup modular.
It's an 8-piece modular using the simple paper cup folds. The model ends up
being a flat coaster like model with neat 8 pizza wedges on one side & a twist

Hi Kathy, if you're open to ellies w just a suggestion of 4 legs (not fully
done 4 legs) then both the Trumpeting Elephant & Jackson's Elephant are fun &
easy to fold. If these origami models don't need to stand & will be hung as
decoration, then even better.

can make a paper plane fly & fly& fly...
There's an interesting paper plan model to learn too.
