I miss the spring in Japan
Origami Evening Cherry Blossom Ball Lantern
Cherry blossom season has started in Japan.
I made an origami cherry blossom and put on some LED lights.
Love a little Japan on my table in Sydney.
日本は桜の季節ですね。
夜桜を思い浮かべて桜玉にLED lightを飾りました。
シドニーから故郷を偲んで。

Created an origami work for the magazine
My response to the Talented Jordan Turner’s request for their magazine.
T Magazine turns 1. Congratulations, T Magazine!
Paper is a canvas to create, a page to write on. It is a medium to cut, fold and reinvent. Whatever the way you choose to tell the story you want to share, we can all connect with one thing. The act of holding that piece of paper in front of you and watching ideas come to life. That is the paper’s performance.

Many different Origami Boxes are available
Responded to the request for the origami box workshop.
I have been searching for the origami boxes which are something easy and quick but look impressive…
There are so many different origami boxes I can teach for the beginners.
I think these boxes in the image (Photographed by Midori) are very cool! (and surprisingly steady and strong.)
Refreshing my memory is also fun and makes me very excited!
Would you like to fold them with me?!
Raindrops on a koi pond
I like the rain.
I like watching the koi pond in the rain.
the rain falls on the pond and makes ripples.
The fish look like they are excited to feel the raindrops…
Each koi fish was folded with a square sheet of paper, no scissors.
Fold with fun
We didn’t have the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race this Summer, but we still had fun folding origami yacht at the workshop.
It was my first time wearing the face shield!
Let’s have a wonderful 2021!
Big thank you to everyone for your support this year.
2020 has been a special year and it was tough, but I enjoy the challenge.
So many new ideas and I have had the joy of meeting so many new people.
Thank you very much for being with me.
It is our creativity and friendships that help us to remain in the moment.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Let’s have a wonderful Creative 2021
