Some Time Ago I Challenged Myself To Create An Origami Crane Every Day For 1000 Days (New Pics)
186Kviews
After having folded and decorated origami cranes daily for 1000 consecutive days (see my previous post on Bored Panda), I took a short break, but I could not stop creating new ones, even though no longer on a daily basis.
I am allowing myself to explore more themes and techniques, and to find inspiration in even more places.
These are some of my latest creations. Some are inspired by things like Greek mythology and Japanese folklore, while others come from the joy of nature, or personal experiences.

okay, question- after he made 1000 of these things, what the actual hecky dizzle did he do with them? first of all they probably take up a lot of space considering there's 1000 of them but also they're so delicate so they have to be placed in somewhere safe. I AM CONFUSION
Some people are so damn creative! Upvote, people, UPVOTE!!! He deserves your votes!!
Dragon crane? Love the thorns up the spine. So carefully thought out and placed.
I love all of the negative space here...so delicate it's gorgeous â¤
I like the details of this with a holiday feel. Beautiful color combination and details very unique.
I did a similar project for my sick friend. She had lung cancer and was told she did not have long to live. I had just read Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes and got everyone I knew to start making paper cranes. For her birthday we hung up the cranes in her room while she went out for dinner with her family. She lived despite what the doctors said and she thinks it is because of the 1000 paper cranes
That is a beautiful story, thank you for sharing. Best wishes to your friend
these are incredible, however they are kirigami, not oragami, but personally i like kirigami better and these are magnificent
Thank you Kraken for that word; Kirigami. And yes Magnificent.
Indeed, Kirigami is about cutting paper, and Origami only about folding. The advantage of origami is that you just need a paper and hands.
Oh ok thanks I never heard of Kirigami. Learn something new every day. Thanks.
Wow. They all look magical, beautiful, complex and delicate. This is master level of skill, talent and creativity in crane making.
