I used one of the beautiful origami papers that came with the new issue of At Your Leisure and folded one of my favorite dinosaurs, the apatosaurus, formerly known as brontosaurus. I dug up a relatively easy tutorial from youtube. It took me about 20 minutes to fold it. I would suggest muting the video though. Let me know how it goes. Happy origami!
It is so cool to have a weird talent! Like yours (now you have one). I can only fold a heart and a bird. Need to work on something more fancy after seeing this!
ReplyDeletei used to horde all the origami videotapes (videotapes!) from the library when i was younger. o paper! it feels so good.
ReplyDeletep.s. 'apatosaurus' yes!
My youngest brother is all about origami, but I never have cared about a project enough to withstand the frustration of staring at tiny creases for minutes on end...
ReplyDeleteThis project might be more worth it. Super cute and I LOVE that photo.
This picture is kinda amazing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect picture. Love origami.
ReplyDeletePerfect origami find! I am off to check out the instructions, need to fold one myself! Thank u/ maria x
ReplyDeleteI have learned very few shapes in origami and yesterday evening I tried to make apatosaurus after watching the video you provided. I came up with something not so good, but thanks for sharing this with us. Happy new year...xo
