    Japanese Origami Hanging Decorations

    These are hanging decorations that you could hang anywhere. This is more of my mother's masterful oragami work. She liked to hang these off of her plants and other places.

    She was a master at origami. When we went to a restaurant to eat she would fold our chopstick covers. She would make birds and other animals in just a few seconds. Including frogs that could jump. Reflecting back she was actually quite amazing.

      Thank you. She was a very talented individual. She was a judge and award-winning Japanese senryu poetry writer. She was also a wonderful painter, and good cook Japanese dishes like a gourmet restaurant.

      And if you think this is impressive wait till I post some of her silk Bonsai work. She was a silk Bonsai master.

      You know she probably set you on your path of appreciation of made things.
      These are beautiful.
