"There are many possible directions to go from here. The current structure is folded only once. Like paper origami, it is possible to fold multiple times."

I folded this origami model twice using the same red/gold wrapping paper, just did a color change.

Each heart is folded from a rectangle (1:2), 10x20cm.

Final size: 5cm (the heart) and 2,5cm height (the rose).

You can easily make a brooch from it, just by attaching a pin on a the back.

Model: origami Kawasaki Rose on a Heart

When I saw this funny model, I knew I just had to fold it. Origami is on my mind too :-)) I used a sheet of yellow kami paper 30x30cm. Final size: height 12,5cm, width 12cm.

An older origami Buddha design, more abstract, but…. folded from just one piece of paper! It is a very ingenious design, I like it a lot.

I had to wait for the perfect sunlight to make the photo and this morning that moment was there;-))

Design: Fred Rohm

Paper: one piece of gold foil, 24x24cm.

Final size: height 10cm, size of one side of the 'table' 6cm

For Macro Mondays theme " Paper-Art "

A more closer look of "Pattern" (see first comment box). The texture reminds me of stone, so I did some processing to emphasize that.

The paper I used is 'glassine', which is great photogenic paper because of its translucency.

Although the name of this origami design is "Hedgehog", it reminds me more of a 'porcupine'. I like the abstract form, though and…...it has a nice folding sequence ;-))

I used a sheet of brown glassine(24x24cm) to fold it.

Final size about 10cm width, 9,5cm height. If you use different paper, you could shape it more and then it becomes more 3d, than it is now.

Folded from six sheets of shiny paper(15x15cm) with an irregular color pattern, which makes this polyhedron even more intriguing ;-).

You see it from different sides, in this triptych. I didn't fold it three times though, just made the photos smaller.

Final size: diameter about 16 cm

Of course I had to create a new critter for my origami collection. This is a little whale. Super easy to do and cute! I now have made a bear, a fox, a kitty (which I will post later), a boat, a sombrero, and a dress. I wonder what else I can make. :)

I highlighted the origami tessellation "Flower". It is a detail of my origami-tessellation "Mosaic".

If you are interested to see more, have a look at my tessellation album Origami - Tessellation Progression".

This is a paper flower which is about 5 cm.

As you can see, my photo is not origami, but as a Japanese, I am very happy many people choose Origami as an object for this week's theme♡

.. happy Friday :)

Macro Monday

Theme: Paper Art

Size: Less than 3x3 inches

The subject is a piece of tissue paper. I sprinkle some water drops on the paper and crunched it randomly to create these shapes.

With a bit of imagination it looks like hills and crumbling icebergs.

There are 2 sources of light , an overhead incandescent table lamp light and a LED torch under neath the tissue paper.

Many thanks for your visit, comments and faves...it is always

appreciated.

The extended version of my little origami-tessellation "GrB"

I started to fold it before the summer holidays, with the intention to finish the 'star'- pattern at a later moment, but looking at it after quite some time, I must say that I like it the way it is now. :-)

Here you can see the backlit version, front and backside of this tessellation.

Folded from glassine, hexagon 33cm, grid 1:64

Macro Mondays- Paper Art Tiny 1cm white paper strips curled and placed on iPhone screen with a bright colored photo on the screen.

Spiral Paper. Wound a strip of A4 paper around a Biro, Then lit it with Adaptalux Studio lighting arms from behind, on a black perspex sheet.

I decided to fold the complete set, it took me quite a while, but here it is ;-))

Each model is folded from one piece of double colored Kraft paper, red and gold, except for the locomotive. That one is made out of 3 parts, the body, the chimney and the wheels. Ensemble them together and you get the locomotive. No cuts, no glue.

I used the sizes given in the book, Final length of this set, when put in a straight line is 90cm.

I couldn't chose between the colored and the b&w version, so I show them both. In the first comment box you can see the b&w version of this photo.

Enjoy your Sunday ;-))

all visitors and friends of my photostream, a heartfelt thank you for your comments and reviews, invitations and favorites

As introduction above the 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, which gives immediately a Xmas feeling. Sorry for that, it is bit too early........ ;-)) So I did make a monochrome photo as well (see first comment box), but then you might think it isn't paper anymore.

That's why 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

- 6 unit Twinkle Cruller about 9cm
