LA Times Blurb from 2018 Descanso Gardens
Yesterday I discovered this LA Times mention of our teaching origami last year at Descanso Gardens. It includes a nice photo story:

There were two sessions where about 30 people learned how to make two origami items, including the Thai tulip and a children’s spinner. Participants ranged in age from young children to older adults. All materials for the origami were provided to the attendees. (Raul Roa / Staff Photographer) |

Origami Warm-up
The trick wasn't well executed. I know the flaw/mistake I'm making that's an easy giveaway; but will do better in the future:

Over-sized Origami Folding at Birthday Party
Last Sunday I did a birthday party for a young, 9-year old origami enthusiast. He wanted to make over-sized origami. The paper his mom picked up from Graphaid was cut into imperfect 53" x 53" squares.
There were about 14 sheets of this paper. Half the party goers played in the bouncy house out front. The other half were pretty good folders and were easy to coach.

Happy Chinese New Year!
This was a quick fold this afternoon:
Did not get the proportions right; nor am I satisfied with the plate (design is by Stefan Delecat). I will fold this again properly with eggs sunnyside up and a full set of silverware.
