As long as I can remember I have been folding origami birds... ha ha! No, really I must have been maybe seven years old when a beautiful Japanese shop opened close to where we lived in Amsterdam.
Shortly after my Mom bought me my first pack of delicious origami paper and I started folding absolutely everything I could think of - but my favourites have always been these little birds...
When Greg and I met in New York it was Christmas and both of us ran out of money in the big Apple in no time... We bought a little Christmas tree but coudn't afford ornaments. I then started folding origami birds out of newspapers and old magazines. They came out so nicely that I ended up folding piles of birds for all our New York friends :) They brought me special paper in the colour of their Christmas trees or Christmas wrapping...
Today I still frequently fold these cute birds to include them in my parcels for customers :)
