Another lovely design by Aldo Marcell, called 'origami Oleo'. It was fun folding it and to ensemble this dodecahedron, you have to be patient, 30 units without glue.
On the photo you see the same model from two different angles but at the same distance. In the upper one I see a face ;-)
Diagrams in the CDO (Centro Diffusione Origami – Italian Origami Association) Convention Book 2013.
There is also a tutorial, if you want to fold it.
I folded it with 30 squares kamipaper 11,7x11,7cm.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
Wishing you and your beloved ones all the best in good health and mood. Enjoy 2023!! And let's hope that the wish that there will be peace may come true this year!!!

I folded it with a 20x20cm double colored paper with a little dot.
Final size: height 8xm, lengt 7cm, width betwee the wings 4cm.
My first idea for a photo of these flowers was to put them in the garden and then take a picture, but since it has been raining all the time, I decided to make an origami spring bouquet on the wall ;-)) With the help of PS I was able to create a suitable frame.
HSS!!
You might not say it, but the origami tulip and daffodil have the same basic shape. That's why they belong together. The stem is imaginary, which I find funny about these flowers.

Diagrams in NOA-magazine #248
Paper Narcissus :
- for each flower: 7,5x7,5cm double colored yellow/orange kami
paper.

"As mentioned in an earlier statement by "Santa Mask" (see in the first comment box), the origami Santas have permission to travel and visit the human world. And so they do, in every possible way. Here you see the unique situation that a Santa-family is walking on water!!! It is not revealed how they do this and I guess it will be one of those secrets never to be known……." :-))
This is a very easy Santa model to fold. It can stand as a table decoration or be used as a bookmark.
I folded a little 'family', starting with a paper 7,5x15cm for Santa standing in the middle. Then I halved the size of the paper to create the one on the right. And once more to make the little one on the left.
Final sizes from left to right: height 1,75cm, 3,5cm and 7cm.

Llegó a casa en un envase de pasta dental , era una pequeña hoja chata, que en realidad es un tallo. Al año siguiente ya comenzó a florecer y perfumar las noches veraniegas.
Es una flor nocturna pequeña unos 10cm de tallo y 7cm de diámetro, ,.
Este año me está dando pocas flores pero igualmente da mucha alegría .
Es originaria de Oxaca, Mexico , aunque ésta que me compartió mi amigo peruano, se la trajeron de Guatemala.
Si bien su nombre científico parece complicado en realidad es que Epiphyllum: es un nombre genérico que deriva de las palabras griegas epi o sea "sobre" y phyllum que significa"hojas"..
Luego la palabra Pumilum, que es un epítetu latino que significa enano...

"The latest development of public transport is designed: "Locomotive with the Face of a Cat". It will be presented today in Origami-Land. It runs on light energy and is super silent." ;-))
Found this funny 'loco -motive' and thought that this model would be a nice start of a new little origamicat-series. While folding it, the song of Take the 'A' Train by Duke Ellington and his Orchestra popped up in my mind. It is one of the first videoclips (1943), the song was written by Billy Strayhorn. Enjoy !!!!
I used a 21x21cm gold/silver Kraft paper.

“Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death. The landscape changes, the people change, our needs change, but the train keeps moving. Life is the train, not the station.”

There are several kinds of 'Kappas', also in origami land, like this one, holding an leaf as protection against the sun? ;-))
I found an explanation on internet about these "Otherworldly Creatures"; it's up to you if you believe it or not ;-)
~~~~There are also those who believe that the Kappa could be a type of alien creature that somehow found its way to Earth. Many who have faith in this argument also believe that other mythological sea creatures inhabit Earth in the uncharted areas of the sea.
Their argument? These strange sea aliens are able to travel to and from the Earth through portals – which may explain why we’ve never been able to prove their existence. They claim that these portals come in the form of mysterious whirlpools. Admittedly, whirlpools and strong water currents are one of the most common descriptions that arise in mythology speaking of the appearance of these strange creatures.
Additionally, many scholars point out that several ancient cultures speak of sea creatures who are documented to have ‘fallen from the sky.’ Many of these creatures, gods, and goddesses are also said to have immediately submerged themselves in a body of water as soon as they arrived and are also credited with teaching human beings religion, culture, and medicine.
Likewise, the early Kappa are known as friendly helpers who worked to teach humans important medical practices such as bone setting.~~~~

'"This Santa has a special job. He receives all the lettres written to Santa and reads them. After that, he starts mediating in his green room to find solutions for all those requests. Most of the time he finds an answer.

This origami Santa is a fancy envelope. It can be easily opened and you can put a little written note inside ;-))
It can stand by itself, so you could use it as a table decoration as well.
I folded it with a 24x24cm red kami paper. Final size: height 9cm, width 7cm.

Another possibility for the MM theme of magnetic. The screw is only 7mm or .7cm long. Btb, why aren’t we wholly on the metric system in the US?? It’s so much easier to be accurate.
Methinks I’m going to, ultimately, have too many choices for the MM posting!! ….
(Later)….While I really like both of the “science lesson” pictures which were probably my favorites, I’m going with the consensus and posting this one. And it’s probably the best/closest macro, too.
…….💙HMM💙
For the 😄 HaPpY CrAzY Tuesday 😄 theme: 'Locked'
I hope it is suitable for the theme, as the paper is locked with the points to keep it together.
Happy Crazy Tuesday everyone.
An old origami model, called 'Braided Paper', which I refolded recently, actually the very first one after the big move ;-)) When I folded it years ago it was a difficult model, but now it is easy. Funny how these things work.
I used a square of rice paper 29,7cm, that is rather thin, because it has lots of layers in the middle.
Final size: a square of 10,5cm
As I do love backlighting, in the first comment box you can see that version ;-)

“The owl,” he was saying, “is one of the most curious creatures. A bird that stays awake when the rest of the world sleeps. They can see in the dark. I find that so interesting, to be mired in reality when the rest of the world is dreaming. What does he see and what does he know that the rest of the world is missing?”
Quote ― M.J. Rose
According to the diagrams this origami Owl is designed in 2010, that might explain why it is called version two. Yesterday I showed you a design from 2006 (see first comment box).
I folded this model also with gold foil 24x24cm.
Final size: height 7cm, length 6cm, width 7cm.
Have a nice start of your weekend!

"""Here we see the candyman at work. He collects chocolate leaves. As soon as the berries are ripe and turn red , they can be harvested.
Then there is a special process that only this Santa masters: making everything super super small and also very lightweight, so that it all fits in the bag and easy to transport.
Once at the destination, he changes it back to its original state."""

This is one of my first experiments with a Diaplan 100mm f/3.5 projector lens.
About Size: the led book lamp has a variable size: its diameter is 1.5 cm in the back part (the part in focus) and 3 cm in the front part. Therefore, including the support, I included almost 7cm of the lamp.
About Image Processing:
I mainly performed these operations:
- I slightly adjusted the exposure, in order to recover the shadows
- I increased the contrast
- I slightly decreased the saturation.
Have a nice and happy MM, dear friends! ;-)

~~~~Penguin Awareness Day is observed on January 20 every year and while we are certainly aware of how adorable these flightless birds are, the dwindling number of penguins needs more attention. The rapidly shrinking population of penguins every year goes mostly unnoticed because their natural habitat is usually where humans don’t live. Penguin Awareness Day is a great initiative to raise awareness on this crucial matter, and also enjoy fun penguin-themed activities.
HISTORY OF PENGUIN AWARENESS DAY
The sight of a small penguin waddling around in its icy homeland is truly endearing. Penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere and are classified as aquatic birds. Zooming in on the south of the equator, there are two types of natural habitats where penguins are found — subantarctic and temperate environments. Nearly 20 species of these fluffy creatures are known, of which the emperor penguins are the largest and the smallest are the penguins native to the coastal areas of New Zealand and Australia. The 2011 animated movie “Happy Feet” featured emperor penguins as the lead stars.
These flightless birds spend their days swimming and hunting for fish to eat. Leading peaceful lives, penguins are harmless but are hunted by predators such as whales, sharks, and seals. This is why penguins are seen in groups, to distract potential hunters. Penguins have always been the subject of great intrigue, with a long list of cartoon movies and documentaries attributed to them.
Unfortunately, penguins are decreasing in population and the exact reason is still to be known. Some researchers found that the plummeting number of krill was the cause; the Malacostraca species is only two inches in length but is significant in the world food chain. Other researchers claim that climate change and changing environments are the cause.~~~

This fledgling Song Thrush is only just out of the nest with small fine down feathers yet to drop. Tail feathers are not yet developed and will grow around 7cm (3 inches) and wings will also develop further. The fledgling was sitting on my deck railing waiting on the Mother to fly in for feeding. This took place three times then the fledgling made a short flight into a nearby tree.
As introduction above teh diagrams she wrote:
'""""Be much. Be little.
Plane models such a Christmas wreaths become 3D when you add extra pieces of units to the models or reduce the number of units."""""
So instead of using 8 units to create a flat star or wreath you see here the 'Twinkle Cruller with 6 units' on the left and the 'Twinkle Cruller with 5 units' on the right and they become 3D.
I used gold patterned foil, but in mono you might think it isn't paper anymore. That is why I made a different colored photo of these models too (see first comment box)
I uploaded them both, because I would like to know which version you like more?
Thanks already for letting me know.
Paper: for both models I used 7,5x7,5cm gold foil

Orange Lacewing butterflies are native to the far north of Australia.
This is a very tough and active species which can be quite aggressive in defending its territory from other butterflies.
The wingspan can measure approximately 7cm.
The food plant for the caterpillars is Adenia heterophylla.
The males and females have the same markings but the male has brighter orange colouring.
These butterflies only live between 7 to 10 days.
This origami box is made from a A4-size paper. The finishing touch is a little rose decoration.
I see it as a mindfulness box, you 'put' happiness and good luck inside it and then give it to a dear friend. The rose will spread the luck, whenever needed. It's just a thought ;-))
