Hi everyone, there is this girl at school, and I was wondering if anyone had any "love origami". I've already made some flowers for her (lang beauty rose, and the kawasaki rose) but if someone had something else like cool hearts or more realistic flowers that would be amazing. I've made some hearts that are plain, but I like the ones with arrows through them, the ones with wings, or just cool hearts/flowers.
Thank you for your help.

In the book, Angelfish to Zen by Peter Engelm there is a great heart with an arrow through it.

This is how I folded it.
One of the VOG members has a heart with wings design, not sure where it is, but it can probably be Googled....
Try Google searching for what you want, you will be suprised, you can find alot. hope that helps.
P.S. Real roses are so much better than anything paper.
