get out the vote!
March 10th, 2010 | Author: I’ve been a member of a site called Craftster.org for almost as long as I’ve been origami videos. It’s a great community site for people who want to share pictures, ideas and advice on all the different kinds of crafts they love to make. Members will periodically arrange craft swaps and they also run themed competitions. Their current challenge theme is “little tiny” crafts. Well I couldn’t resist, and decided to make some tiny origami. They are currently allowing votes on the winner until March 16. Please check out the competition and vote – to vote you’ll need to register with the site (it’s completely free). If you want to vote for me, my entry is called Teeny Tiny Origami. Here’s what I submitted:

Waa Waa Waaaaaaaaaaaaa
Hear’s how to make an origami Cicada. Sometimes these things are called locusts… These are the things that leave those creepy exo-skeletons on trees and go waa-waa-waaaaaaaaa in mid and late summer.
Kae-gu-ri
So I may or may not have mentioned that I’m half Korean – I honestly can’t remember. I only bring it up now to explain the title of this post… Kae-gu-ri is Korean for frog… and instead of saying “ribbit,” they say “kae-gu.” With that said, I bring you this week’s video – how to make an origami frog from the frog base
Crazy Origami Concept
Check out this crazy origami inspired mp3 player concept spotted on Yanko Design…
The idea is that you’d fold the player so that it would take on the shape of traditional play, stop, fast forward / skip and rewind / back buttons and would actually perform those functions.
I think that’s pretty slick… I already have an iPhone that I use for music, but this would be a neat conversation piece. What do you all think?
