Hey I saw your post about maki f cranes and I just wanted to pop in and say that I do the same thing with origami lucky star!
Anyway, for your making cranes out of random objects project, o wanted to share that if you buy those little squares of fabric meant for quilting, smother them with clear glue, and let them dry, you can then fold them into cranes pretty easily, and see them intro clothes and stuff. Just make sure you use a heat resistant glue if you’re gonna see them into clothes. They also don’t tear as easily, so they’re good to use for other Devore as well.
You could probably also starch the fabric, but I’ve ever only used glue.
ooh thank you for the idea :0 that sounds awesome
ok
stop forgetting to fold the narrow diamond’s edges again before folding inwards 😭😭
it makes the origami crane’s neck and tail too big and also prevents the body from puffing out properly !!
very common mistake and people are often so close to getting it perfect and then they forgot!! And then they’re like ☹️ so I’m like ☹️ too
I haven’t actually shared it yet here because I forgot but I really really really love making origami cranes.
like I will sit down and fold them for hours when I feel like it because they’re so cute and I love them !!
I’ve made around 300+ cranes (including the exact 200 I’ve counted for a project I’m working on) And the smallest one I’ve made is the size of a grain of rice. It’s in the picture :D Also the biggest one pictured above is my favorite one that I’ve made. I just think it’s the prettiest and it was made 5 years ago.
I’m starting to work on cranes made out of odd materials, like fortune cookie fortunes or jolly rancher wrappers or shiny wrapping paper.
so yeah just wanted to share, I’d consider it a passion ⛹️⛹️
feel free to ask stuff, idk if I’d be able to answer precisely but I’ll try !
my favorite things about my mutuals is that when I get recommended stuff from their likes I can tell exactly who it's from, every time. Artsy shit or pusheen? Why it must be my good friend @dandiisaurus !!! I get a lot of disability advocacy posts from @batterwing (/pos)!!! Terraria and MOGAI stuff belong to @enniuthenotsoepic, and anything TMNT I can assure you that @thelocaldilf liked it.
Repost from my old account because it was glitching out of hell and I couldn’t figure it out and then I accidentally deleted it but that’s ok because this one actually works teehee
