This is an 30 unit triangle edge module icosahedron made with $2 bills with the back of the bill facing out. Makes for a much greener color than it's $1 bill counterpart, although I still think the pattern made by the $1 bills is more interesting.

Next I need to come up with $150 in $5 bills. I'd use $100 bills but.. well.. where am I going to find $3000?

My brother got married over the weekend (back in 2006!) and as part of my wedding gift to them I folded the Interlocking Heart Rings (folded from one uncut square!) from Jeremy Shafer's Origami to Astonish and Amuse. I also folded the fancy gift box from the same chapter in the same book, but as of right now don't have a photo of it available for upload.

To Kenneth and Yasna: I know you'll take care of each other on the many future adventures that life has in store for you, and if the past few years is any indication, I'm sure you'll have a wonderful life together. Thank you so much for having me be a part of your wedding.

Several months ago, I posted a thank you note on an entry of Bluesparrowhawk's open diary which now apparently no longer exists. I always appreciate it when someone mentions or links to my site and so I offered to post some of her work if she had the means to send photos to me. She recently decided to take me up on my offer and sent me this lovely photo of a dragon that she folded.

This dragon is folded from one of the designs found in the book Origami Sourcebook by Jay Ansill. Since I don't actually have my copy handy right now, I couldn't say which one offhand, but I believe that there are three different dragon designs in the book. I will post more details once I have them.

This is a rose of the same design featured here but the base and stem are different designs. Ronald Rae Yu sent this photo and has posted his instructions on how to fold and attach the base. Thank you, Ron!

This was sent to me by Jeph. This is a photo of a display that Jeph set up at his local library. I no longer have the full details of what library or when and how long it was on display.

"All butterflies know are songs and poetry and anything else they hear."

But what is life without a little sillyness now and then, hmm? Speaking of silly butterflies, here is one folded out of a $20 bill. The diagrams can be found at Origami.com [pdf file].

This image was one of the images featured on the homepage for the last year or so. I have since started featuring a different model each week so check the homepage for the latest folds!
