Origami Creations - Easter Bunnies

My tribute to Easter ... a collection of rabbit folds.

Bugs bunny look ... tutorial click here

My favorite one, tutorial here

Adorable model

The first one was a bit difficult as I only use copy paper and the model has thickened so much.  The second one is really a wonderful model.   Finally, the last piece uses awesome color change and shaping.

Happy Easter guys!

Simple Pleasures - Blessed with Friends Magic Touch

Reminds me of the saying  "when it rains, it pours!".  Meaning after a time without rain and the crops are dying, rain does come and it will really be a big and continuous one.

I wrote about the joy of seeing my new found friends making my designs just last week here.  This week, I have been blessed with more lovely pieces.

This one is from a much loved and talented artist who could be one of the people that have kick started me in this journey.  Her name is Yara Yagi and you may find more of her lovely pieces here.  Her blog is a MUST see too!

From one of the greats (I firmly believe) - Rui Roda

One more from Rui

There is a distinct interpretation of their folds and photo composition that make ones' work stand out.  Quite difficult to explain but readily felt when looking at the photo.  Here you may find more of Rui's work in flickr and be blown away!

If you are interested to fold my designs, please feel free to do so.  You may find all my diagrams and tutorials here.  Please do kindly share your creations and feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Have a great week!

Origami Design/Creations - Minimalist Easter Bunnies (復活節兔子)

It's the Easter Week and I've challenged myself to do something for this occasion.  An obvious choice is making an easter bunny.

As I have done 3 simple origami competitions (sadly without gaining any win :o(), I have decided to try my skills on making these lovely critters.

Tada ... my minimalist Easter Bunnies.

At first thought, I was a little bit doubtful because of their short ears.  But when I ask the expert opinion of my daughters, they said that they are babies so they will need time to grow them. 

Lovely Babies

Other than this, there are indeed rabbits that have short ears.  These breed is called the "Netherland Dwarf Rabbit".

Super short yet Cute

It was great fun and hope I was able to justice on my Easter Bunnies.

Video tutorial can be found here.

Have a great Easter week!
