Origami is the art of folding paper into fun figures, interesting designs, and works of art. This is one of the best Origami sites we’ve seen. It was designed by graphic designer and artist, Fumiaki Shingu, as a way to share the magic of Japanese Origami with people worldwide.
When you get to the site you’ll see a menu of Origami possibilities that include folding paper into:
- Sea Creatures
- Bugs
- Fruits & Vegetables
- Animals & Birds
- Sweets & Food
- Paper Air Planes
- Holiday Decorations
- Alphabet Letters
- Numbers
- Furniture
- Clothes
- Using Newspaper for Origami
And there is even a section of “Easy Origami” for beginners! Click on any one of the options and a new screen opens with a selection of designs. Click on a design of interest, and a new page opens with complete instructions and animated illustrations that simplify the whole process. Anyone can learn the art of Origami with the use of this website!
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
