These earrings are made from a variation of the sonobe units, created by Mitsonobu Sonobe. They are easy to make and look very elegant. They actually look much prettier that this :) My photographic skills at fault here. They...
The spiral star is very elegant, intricate-looking origami which is surprisingly easy to make. Assembling the piece is quite easy if you use a cheat's way out.. some paper clips to hold the sides together :D The modules start...

Michael LaFosse is known for his origami butterflies and I think this Alexander Swallowtail Butterfly is by far the most beautiful of his designs. His website features quite a few of his designs. In addition, the tutorial for...
The bird base rose, created by James Sakoda, is an easy rose to make, comparatively speaking :) Turns out quite well. I think the rose looks best when the paper size is around 4-5 inches. I first tried it with a 6 inch paper...
