Ange Ecija Blanco's Self-Closing Box




Source

One of my favorite containers.  I am glad it's more freely out there in public.  Angel shared this, but a bit more obscure as I think it was only accessible if you visited his FB.

When I had the die made to stamp the crease pattern onto cardstock to make his model easier for beginners to fold, I had asked him for permission to do so.

Penguin that can stand on its head

Kinda like the tarumpty tum tum/tumbler:


Isamu Sasagawa's Biting Skull (puppet)



I folded this a month or so ago:


Fun little puppet.  I used some leftover elephant hide to fold this (don't remember what size paper).  Because of the natural stiffness of the paper, no tape needed to stick to the fingers and keep the mouth open (as suggested by Sasagawa in his video, and due to the paper he folded with). 



If you enjoy this model, check out Isamu Sasagawa's channel for more fun and original action models.

Matthew Green's Rhombus with a Twist






Just concluded a live feed online origami class with Matthew Green teaching his Rhombase with a twist model. This is a 4-piece version that spins!

Excellent, enjoyable interactive teaching in Spanish and in English!

For future classes, like the page, Origamex.

For Rhombus twist class, tutorial is still available, post-live feed.

Jo Nakashima's Feathered Crane








Origami Feathered Crane
Designed by Jo Nakashima
Folded by Michael Sanders
30 cm x 30 cm square of beautiful paper from Kathy Stevick (a duo-colored red-gold wrapping paper from Jillson Roberts, according to her).


Kathy was kind enough to send me a roll of paper, just out of the blue, unsolicited.  Thank you, Kathy, for your generosity!  I will make beautiful art from the paper.


You can make your own here.

Star Puff Box

Since doing Beth Johnson's acorn, I'm starting to like folding hexagons.  I've avoided it because I'm a bit lazy at cutting out hexagon shapes from squares- I don't know why, but I feel like I'm wasting paper by cutting away the unessentials.  :-P

Anyway, I folded this last week:

Smartphone Stand

There are a number of iPhone stands out there.  I'm liking this one because of its squashable portability (There are numerous video tutorials of this design- not sure who the actual designer is):

*REMOVED*


 Ok....after poking around, I believe the original creator is Oliveira Wellington of Easy Origami. Please support the original artist and not the numerous copycat (and unnecessary) tutorials out there:
