1.0 out of 5 stars Wish I didn't buy it, January 5, 2010

This review is from: Easy Origami Fold-a-Day: 2010 Day-to-Day Calendar (Calendar)
Depending on what you're looking for, you may or may not like this calendar...

In the past, I've folded some medium to somewhat advanced Origami models. With that in mind, I still liked the idea of folding easy, daily models: something I could do quickly during short breaks at work. Now that I see the first week's models, I'm disappointed. They ARE easy, but that also means the end results are less interesting and/or less recognizable.

Second: Like many people who enjoy Origami, I'm a "purist" in that I like and respect the tradition of always starting with a square piece of paper (which IS true of this calendar's Origami), but ALSO that scissors should not be used. I was disappointed to find that the model for Jan. 5 requires scissors, both to finish the wings of the Dove model, but also to scallop the edges of the wings. I suspect the author resorted to scissors to "cut corners" (pun intended). That is: If you've only got a small amount of space per day for folding instructions, but want a "nice" end result model like a dove, resorting to a single step that uses scissors definitely avoids many more folding-only steps to achieve the same result (as a "purist" would prefer).

If you're not a "purist" and are looking for an easy introduction to Origami, this might be what you want. Alas it's not what I personally was hoping for...

5.0 out of 5 stars Origami EVERYDAY, February 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Easy Origami Fold-a-Day: 2010 Day-to-Day Calendar (Calendar)
This calendar is awesome. It comes with 365+ pieces of colored paper to do your origiami. It's bright, colorful and each day you fold something new! Personally, I bought this to aid my quest of folding 1000 paper cranes to make a Senbazuru one day and thus far it is helping tremendously. On top of that, I've learned to make a bunch of other fun animals. This calendar rocks!
