Paper Folding Experience

Introduced by my aunt, I started to fold paper with paper folding books. My first complishment was a crane with a help of my mom. I borrowed books from my aunt and learned new folds. For couple of my birthdays, my parents bought me the origami books for the gifts which I asked for. Paper folding has been my best friend for more than a decade.

With my interest and skills I used to make dolls, cases and etc as birthday gifts for my friends, and families. I also taught my friends how to make roses, birds and ornaments when they asked me for the instructions.


During the high school life, I could have From my high school, one of my school faculty suggested me to teach other students for an art credit. So I had Origami Class for two years sharing my skills and producing tissue case, dolls, Christmas ornaments, cases, and etc. Some were located in the school exhibitions for other people to get fascinated.



I also got a chance to work with kindergarteners and elementary students for volunteer. I felt great joy while my fellows enjoy making things.



Besides, I published a book called " Paper Toys for Beginners" as a high school capstone project in 2009 using a publishing website, Blurb. While organizing material for the book, I found how easy and close origami was to us!
