[Origami] Can We Talk About the Elephant (and the Hundreds of Other Origami Models) In the Room?

Contact your local library or school - offer a display and they may also let you give away models to kids. As precious as they are, they take up space and I have had many instances where, rather than sending bags of fold to the bin, giving them away is a better alternative. regards Peter Whitehouse

Perhaps consider a "sealer" spray - craft shops sell clear lacquer in aerosol cans to stabilise, make water resistant and protect paper surfaces - might work alternatively, talc? regards Peter Whitehouse* http://www.wonko.info *some assembly required - Email
