Origami : Slave's New Art Form.

So budget is a little tight this year for x mas seeing how I have been in school for over half a year and not working. I decided to get creative in gifts this year and give art out instead.

I'll update later on this week with other finished origami pieces as I go along. Currently I have one done and 2 others on the go. Takes me between 15 hrs to 30 hours, due to trial and error >.<

This piece took 120 pieces to make and I just used some wrapping paper, glue, some extra beads I had laying around and some string. Took about 17 hours labour and maybe total 2$ if that. :) The love is in the labour not the cost ofc :P

And another one just finished. This one took several days because I kept gluing the pieces togehter wrong, but the 3rd try worked great and from start to finish (3rd try) only took 6 hrs or so :D

LOL Agi, though they are paper they do tend to get heavy :P I'd totally mail if it wasn't for prices to mail shit >.<

Not to be a downer or anything, cause they are amazing
but isn't the point of origami not to use glue?

It's true, one way or "style" doesn't involve glue or more then one paper. This is a branch off the actual term is called Kirigami, but if I had used that term I'm sure no one would have known what that was ^^ So I used the umbrella word for the paper art that I am doing :D

:crushed: Its ok elle, any way they are beautiful

You learn something new every day
but yeah... want one...

nice stuff Slave!!
time consuming I reckon??

:-))

so thats where u been hiding L:O nice slave i like the color choices :)

Thanks ^^ And yeah, takes a lot of time. I squeeze it in between breaks at work (folding) and once kids go to bed :P

Got a really complicated one coming up, with any luck will be done in the next day or so :)
