Princess Nagger has been having a lot of fun making origami critters lately – she taught herself how to do it by watching tutorials On Demand, and scads of YouTube videos. Every-other-day she fashions a new one, with whatever scrap of paper happens to be lying around. Like a piece of clear plastic:
Or the insert to a Happy Meal toy:
But her biggest accomplishment (literally and figuratively speaking) is the ginormous Macaw she created:
PN: “It took a lot of paper and about 100-feet of tape. Well, maybe only about 50-feet of tape, but it was a lot of tape. I’m pretty sure it’s life-size for how big a Macaw is. Or at least it could be the world’s largest Macaw.”
Pretty impressive, don’t you think? I can fold a great nose-diving paper airplane, but origami? I’m all thumbs.

I love your origami birds so cool!
She taught herself to do this? She definitely has a natural talent for it, and I bet she even learned some math in the process!
Happy WW!
