I was really into origami during elementary and middle school after we hosted a Japanese exchange student. I never constructed anything like the ones on this site though. Scroll down to see the origami orchids!

Amazing, I have a friend who does this so I've sent him the link.

Might inspire him to make me one.......lol.

It's amazing what a skilled person can do with paper!

Wonderful... My girlfriend (she is half Japanese...) knows how to make shrimps out of.... the things below... how do you call them? I have never needed to use this word or had to look it up in a dictionary...

(The ones that are inside the glass...)

If you don't know the word, then how did you look up the photo? Did you have a photo of "drinking straws" lying around?

I'd like to see one of these shrimps.
