I bought these and have been saving it for some time. Recently, I have decided to use some of them for origami (compound of 5 octahedra and japanese brocade).
Gift wrapping paper is just one of the many paper options for origami. But plain paper works well too in showing the actual beauty and shape of the origami. Be it matte, glossy or textured - do give it a try on models you think it will suit best. Enjoy :)

The model is derived from the the Octagon Cross Module, converted to form the Hexagon Cross module. The angle in step 4 of Dirk Eisner's Octagon Cross Module is changed to 60 degrees - www.flickr.com/photos/eisfold/9419596217/
The model is from 6 rectangles of Duo-coloured Korean papers of 3x1 dimension. [15cm x 5cm] They are first assembled and simple mountain and valley folds plus a colour change are then applied to each of the 6 arms.
There are many variations, just like the Coasters derived from the Triangle Cross modules. Many thanks to Dirk Eisner for sharing his ideas with me.

When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
With a red hat which doesn’t go, and doesn’t suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
And satin sandals, and say we’ve no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I’m tired
And gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
And run my stick along the public railings
And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
And pick flowers in other people’s gardens
And learn to spit.
You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
And eat three pounds of sausages at a go
Or only bread and pickle for a week
And hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes.
But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practise a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.
Left-over papers/paper scraps used as cover for mini note pads. Inside are several pages of reused white paper (some with print on one side), for writing short notes, etc. Nothing to throw away. Flat and small to fit in a purse.
i was playing with some objects,and this idea came to my mind..here i tried to focus only to the paper roll..it was in a very darkroom...with the flash light
In 1950 the Bowater Paper Corporation of London started to issue an occassional journal to help provide "a stimulating commentary" on paper, its production, history and contemporary use. Needless to say it was produced to a high standard, if only to show off its own products, and several well known designers and artists of the period were commissioned for cover artwork and illustrations.
One of the major articles in this issue is on wallpaper - design and production - and the type of Bowater paper produced for this specialised product. As part of the issue a fold out inset shows four specially designed wallpapers, commissioned from five then well known and popular designers.
These are a design for a hall by Sylvia Priestley MSIA; Design for a dining room by Lucienne Day MSIA ; design for a nursery by Jacqueline Groag FSIA; and a design for a bedroom by Diana Armfield and Roy Passano MSSIA.
In 2011 the local papers advertised that Leonardslee Gardens had been purchased by a private owner and would not be open to the public thereafter. Along with thousands of other people I went along to visit before it closed.
Closed to the public for eight years, the 240 acre estate previously attracted 50,000 visitors each year to see the outstanding displays of rhododendrons, azaleas, camelias, magnolias and bluebells, collected from all over the world in the early 1800's."
So It's good to see that it reopened on April 6th 2019. The website says"After nearly two years of hard work, with extensive restoration of the Grade 1 Listed gardens, we are nearly there, ready to open our doors and welcome you in April".
Walking around the lakes and gardens was a bit like walking into the stage of sleeping beauty. The flowers and shrubs had woken up but you had to look through the overgrown shrubs, deadwood and dead ferns to appreciate some of the flowers. There are some very good cafe's and the shrubs in that area are beautiful but there is still a lot of work to do.

Recht auf Stadt “Never mind the papers”
Hamburg/Germany 01.05.2015
6.000 People

We made it very clear that we, in our struggle for housing, for better social conditions, and against the exploitation of workers, stand side by side with all people who are denied basic human rights. With the people, who have to face the unbearable conditions in the refugee camps on a daily basis, who are denied medical treatment and who are denied the right to work and to a decent education – like the group “Lampedusa in Hamburg”. Together, we are fighting for our right to the city, for our right to a good life and for an open, solidarity-based city. We undermine your laws, we live together, we organize medical treatment without asking for papers or health insurance and we organize ourselves as refugees to fight for our rights.
So what is in our way to achieve our goals? It is the misanthropy of the government, which still makes laws to discourage refugees instead of welcoming them. That is why we demand social rights for all – good housing, medical treatment, work permits and the right to stay for everybody.
On the first of may we will take to the streets again. As we now have learned, the new senate will continue to deport people, their announcement of decentralized accommodation for refugees remains vague and unclear. Refugees under the age of eighteen can be locked up in a special closed facility from now on, according to the plans of the new senate and the group “Lampedusa in Hamburg” is not even mentioned in the coalition agreement of the SPD and the green party. Once again, the senate prefers to decide on every single case rather than agree to a solution for the whole group and even tries to sell that as a political solution. The green party broke their promises made before the election, as we expected. Their demands for refugee rights were just lies to catch more votes. This shows us that for our vision of a city for everybody we can only trust in the power of our solidarity and not in politicians, which we will make clear on May 1st
No Way! While the senate in Hamburg doesn´t use its power to help refugees, the federal government of Germany plans to tighten the laws for refugees even more this summer. The consequences: More illegalized people, more racist police controls and a massive expansion of detention centers. We won´t accept that!
Hamburg senate – we are watching you! We still demand a collective solution for the group “Lampedusa in Hamburg”. We are still here and we are still fighting for our rights.
Federal government – We reject your inhuman policy. Take back these inhuman new laws!
