The pictures speak for themselves but I uttery adore extreme origani. Me, I cant even make a paper plan or follow instructions. If you want to take up this sport then check out Amazon for lots (& lots) of books.
Lets get folding!
Implications - One of my absolute favorite designs is the incredible dragon featured here. It blows my mind to think about how much time and effort had to go into creating something this intricate out of paper, and while I may not be the most skilled paper folder, I now want to try my hand at this delicate art. If you're in the same boat as me, do yourself a favor and get to folding!
