My first project in uni, involves me using origami as the base to create a product. Origami is so much fun to do when you're bored and looking for something to do at home, which does not require you to hunt for things needed!!

An interesting concept of Origami used to make a sofa which gives the illusion of an elephant. Material of felt sheets are used thereby retaining the use of paper as usual in origami.

How cool is it that this tea bag when placed in the tea, opens up into a paper crane?!

Who knew that origami has so many sides to it now? Anything can be made with it..and it is ecofriendly as a material. Even though it is not very long lasting, the advantages of using paper forms outweighs the disadvantages.
