The Origami Forum

Hi everyone! Sorry i started a new topic, but i couldnt find any where i could introduce myself..
My name is Adina and i'm from Romania. I enjoy origami a lot and i think i could learn many things from all of you here.
Meanwhile, i'll show you some of my work:

Jolly nice.

The origami isn't too bad, too.

Welcome to the Origami forum.

Haha Fishgoth. Yeah, very nice!!!

You like making kusudamas, huh?

Welcome to the forums!

Yes, kusudamas are my favorites! I want my Christmas tree this year to be decorated only with kusudamas ( and chocolates... )

Thanks for your appreciations everyone!

Welcome! I am new too! I couldn't find any formal introduction spot either so... I think this works just fine!

Sure, lunasea! I'm more than happy to share my introductional page with you!

Hello !
Very nice kusudamas !!! How many pieces to make them (and how much time) ?
I find that your avatar is great too A photo of you ?

It takes about 40-45 pieces to make a kusudama. And each piece takes me 5-10 mins. Sometimes i do them when i watch tv, so thats working a little slower..

As for my avatar, yes it is me. The pic was made a couple years ago so it's not the most recent but...you can get an idea.

The stars are nice, too-the curves are very natural. I am personally against cutting, but they are still beautiful and that is what counts. Welcome to the forum

Except those beautiful kusudamas, what do you like to fold ?

To be honest, i started folding about 3-4 months ago. So i don't have too much experience with origami. I am terrible at drawing ( i can't even draw a tree!! ) and i had no idea i could do such things as kusudamas...until i tried.

Jonny i like the stars as well, and its very easy to make them. I think they make great Christmas decorations, for windows and curtains especially.
