I have been thinking of trying out an origami composition which is an assembly of various origami, around a common theme.

The composition that I worked on was a beach with boats and houses along the beach and here is what I finally managed to come up with :) I hadn't realized that making a composition could be quite this time-consuming! Finalizing what I wanted to make was the simplest part of the process. I then had to decide on the size, then try out quite a few times to get the proportions right. Finally I set everything in place to complete the arrangement. So given the pains I took to get it done, I must say I am quite proud of it! I think it has come out very well :)

If you want to give the composition a try, I have posted on most of the individual origami earlier. So do take a look :) The composition is made up of

• Sun / Kalami Star
• Catamaran
• House
• Duck
• Beach Chair
• Tulips

This duck origami is a traditional design and it can be folded in a variety of sizes. I folded mine in 2 sizes - 3 and 2 inches. It resulted in ducks that were around 1 inch in height. Since they can be folded into such a small size, they make great additions to cards. A mamma duck and a row of her little ducklings would make a great Mother's Day card, I think :)
