What should i do with my oragami things?

Question

I have a ton of oragami things made and i love the paper, but i can't think of something to do with them. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Yes the papers are very beautiful, aren't they? I remember one year in the lobby of a big office building on Madison Avenue they had a huge Christmas tree covered in origami and it was so pretty. So naturally the 1st thing that came to mind was ornaments for your tree or a bunch of em in a box covered in the origami paper as well and tied with a ribbon would make a really nice gift you can give any time of year.

A hanging mobile like the kind they hang over babies cribs might be nice too and you could add strings of colored glass beads and feathers and bells or whatever or even a nice arrangement in one of them shadowbox frames.

Lil notebooks/diaries also covered in the papers with one animal pressed flat on the cover. Or just keep them like potpourri in a nice bowl or jar till Halloween and give them as special treats, party favors, magnets, pencil toppers, or perhaps there be a way to rig them for pop-up greeting cards?

Answer 2

If you can learn to make tiny ones,varnish them and make earrings. Simply go to a craft store and get earring wires, and attach hem with jump rings.

Answer 3

give some to friends and make a youtube video so the world knows how to make the pretty things you make!

Answer 4

You could make an x shaped frame from wooden dowels and tie them to it in a sort of mobile.

If you truly have a ton, I'd hang them individually from the ceiling using push pins or clear tacks.  If you're young yet, it'd be fine in your bedroom.  If you're young at heart, it'd be nice in the bathroom or, if they're made of nice paper, maybe clustered near a window in the dining or living rooms.

Answer 5

Get a shadow box and display them inside, and put that on your wall.
