#OrigamiDaily2007 – The Eight Best Models

January 11, 2018 Lisa 0

You might be aware of my goal to finish off an old origami daily calendar from 2007 in 2017. I started off the year with daily origami posts to Instagram. And then I started posting my nail art more and more… Long story short, since origami was not an art Read More

In a Paper Boat

August 17, 2017 Lisa 0

I haven’t been very good about keeping up with the alphabet challenge prompts on Instagram. This month it’s because I’m trying to keep up with too many challenges. By the time of this posting I have published 16 different manicures this month and I have 2 more that are going Read More

July 30, 2017 Lisa 2

I was looking forward to folding the frogs, but I didn’t think I would enjoy this month as much as I did. The fish were a lot of fun and I learned how to swivel pleat (see the fan tail fish’s instructions). The origami I was a little worried about Read More

July 4, 2017 Lisa 2

June was supposed to be origami butterflies and utter happiness. I wasn’t as happy with the results as I wanted to be, sadly. I was hoping to find a butterfly that would translate well on a really small scale and I’m just not feeling it with any of these. I Read More

This month we round the corner on flowers and move into the insect origami that I wanted to fold. I started with a dud of a flower that ripped in multiple places and I was not enjoying myself. So I found a different flower to fold and chucked the other Read More

Return to the Yellow Sea

May 14, 2017 Lisa 2

I’ve previously completed oceanic nail art with a yellow theme and I ended up doing it again this time. 26 Great Nail Art‘s challenge for this week is yellow and one bold color. This is my second attempt at it because the first one ended up looking all green with Read More

#origamidaily2007 – End of April

May 2, 2017 Lisa 2

So I decided to fold these origami groupings once a month or so instead of trying to get it all done at once. I have enough to last until the end of the year. I definitely fell behind in my intentions, but no one called me on so I guess Read More

#origamidaily2007 – End of March

March 30, 2017 Lisa 0

Another month of the origami calendar come and gone. I actually folded and photographed nearly everything for March in less than a day. Yet I had to ask myself: was it worth that day? I’ve seen the work of real origami artists. The origami in this calendar is cute (sometimes), Read More

#origamidaily2007 – End of February

February 28, 2017 Lisa 0

Another month’s worth of origami (and/or paper crafts) done. It really hasn’t been two hard to keep up with the pre-photographed origami, but the month is over and I am supposed to be making a decision on whether or not I want to continue posting them daily on Instagram. I Read More
