Make fun and functional origami out of your spare paper with this easy
origami book.
Don't dump your wastepaper into the garbage--it's time to fold!
World-renowned origami artists and award-winning authors Michael G.
LaFosse and Richard L. Alexander show you the way with Trash Origami.
This origami book presents unique and fun projects from their Origamido
Studio and from some of the world's best paper designers, including
Nick Robinson, Herman Van Goubergen, and Rona Gurkewitz.
The origami models are presented for the reader who may have little or
no previous folding experience, making it a great origami-for-kids book
and an effective way to learn origami. However, experienced paper
folders will also be intrigued by the novel nature of the folds and the
unusual materials involved. The origami designs are made from old
calendar pages, candy wrappers, envelopes, newspaper, postcards, paper
grocery bags and more. The accompanying DVD video tutorial will make the
folding process clearer and aid folders of all skill levels. Also
provided is a guide to everyday materials that have the most folding
potential leaving readers inspired to design and display their very own
"trash" origami.
