some pages to print out. Christmas theme is on the little icon with the Xmas tree inside, or just click on the picture of the Santa. It has a cute origami box that can be used for small gifts too.

Thank you, Yoriko, this is fun! I watched the video and it's simple to follow the steps. Now I'll have to get my a packet of papers and practice before I show the grandchildren.

Thanks for the info on this site. I liked the video to show you how to fold. I also liked the paper that can be printed out. I have to say I am not good at origami. Small Japanese children have been enterteined at my poor origami skills. Its quite something when a 5-6 year old patiently shows you what to do, a humbling experience. Their work always looks excellent in comparison. Arigato, sayonara.

Awesome Yoriko! I'll have something to entertain DGC over the Christmas Holidays instead of baking...these are fat free aren't they?

Hi, Yoriko!! Thanks for the origami site, it's great! The directions for making the pieces are just so simple, even without language. They show you exactly how to make the folds in a little video sort of way. Even I can understand it, hee hee hee. I think to place this post here is good, because it's very unusual. I'd also put the site in bookmarks, too, though, because if anyone wants to find it at a later date, it would probably be easier to find it there than trying to find this post again. Thanks for showing us, I've always loved origami!! Hugs, Marji

Thanks for replying, Reddish. I am glad you like origamis, just a little bit of my culture, and it can be used in crafts as well.

You will find very nice envelopes there too, with regular and heart format. They are fun to make.
