not to point fingers (at you, ma...) but this paper obsession started way back when i was a little girl. and i'd rip through my packs of origami paper making heart, garlands, boxes and my favorite of them all.... snip through a stack of them to make colourful confetti (and then make my brothers throw them at me like im a bride.. i tell you, its in my DNA!!). i guess it was an inexpensive and easy way to keep my active mind occupied.
after that many years, i made a crane again! (assisted by youtube!)
i blame it on the father in law who made me take him to hyaakku-en (100yen) store. the biggest one in town, 4 levels tall, at harajuku is a treasure trove of cuties!! there is absolutely no way anyone can walk out with nothing in their hands. so i bought a little pack of origami paper. (and 32 other little things..)
75mm x 75mm of pure fun. this kami paper is thin and printed on one side. but im totally digging the pattern! mochi balls & onigiri.. love them both!
classic red flowers & little pink wooden dolls..
furoshiki (fabric wrapped bentos) & some little friends from the sea.. kawaii ne!!
great stay-home activity for me today.. im thinking if i wanna make a garland for spring?? or maybe a origami necklace. hmm. decisions decisions!!
omgggg i think klkl HAVE to drag me outta that shop! HAHA
