Hi, my name is Jenny, I'm new to origami completely, I know how to make a paper crane. I'd love to learn how to make more, I'm checking out sites with instructions for things like flowers and I'm excited to get started.

All I have is scrapped blank and lined paper and christmas wrapping paper. I wonder if I could make folded decorations with my wrapping paper? Maybe a garland of shapes would be a good project closer to Christmas.

But Halloween is this week, so maybe I should go look for orange paper and fold up some pumpkins? :) http://www.origami-instructions.com/ori ... mpkin.html

This is so neat!

that's actually the waterbomb, with a face painted on, some other models that could work eaven a little better are the origami strawberry and the radish.

They too are variations on the waterbomb but at least have leaves and a little more rounded shape. hope you enjoy!
