Wow, I definately need to make an origami throwing star to throw at one of my friends.
interesting origami video. I like the simplicity of it.
Neat blog! =)
I think the video instructions are a great idea - v. helpful for folks to get started. I think sometimes it can be pretty intimidating to try and learn just out of books.
I’m going to try the moneygami sometime - What fun!
