here’s one i made earlier…
April 14th, 2008what with crafts being all the rage at the moment, i thought that i would get in on some of the action and put my origami skills to the test - with some interesting results!
don’t worry, i won’t give up the day job… how about i send the final product to the person who can show me the most creative thing they can produce?

I was impressed with your video so I went and tried to make one. I thought it would be great to keep the Eastern tradition so I made a Dragon.

Just kidding. I didn’t make it. But I thought I’d share the photo because it’s absolutely NUTS!

I’m glad that you pointed out that you didn’t make it, otherwise I would have been totally convinced

I’ve made something for you, wanna come see it?

For those of you who are asking for the instructions as you’re convinced you could make it in 3 attempts - they can be found at http://www.origami-instructions.com/origami-crane.html

Well, I knew it would be obvious, but I didn’t want you to think that I was a liar.

I am sure you get this all time but you have the brightest, most charming smile, ever. Oh wait … this video wasn’t about your smile huh?
Fun video by the way
Have a great day.

That Blue Peter tune gave me an instant flashback. Days after school watching infinitely complicated creations made from sticky back plastic and toilet roll holders. Grange Hill was easier on the brain.
Great choice of track as well. Haven’t heard it in ages.
