The art of paper folding: Origami(おりがみ). “Crane & Pigeon” Vol.1

Origami is one of the traditional plays and craftworks in Japan. 


It's an art of paper folding. Many kinds of paper crafts (animals,flowers,vechelcles etc...) are made of only single square piece of paper. Japanese would be familiar with this traditional one because we often learned it in childhood. Nowadays foreign travelers for Japan are interested in it for souvenir. 


The beautiful and soft touch paper would fascinate them. 


Today let me share some Origami craftworks and how to make them.



Only origami papers are in on the desk. (We don’t need any scissors and glues)
