Good afternoon everyone!
I just wanted show y’all the new Lot 8 summer window we have been working on. I wanted to do a very bright colorful window for the store and I found this origami technique and fell in love with the flower it made. The written directions were kind of confusing but I figured it out after a few times. So I thought I would demonstrate how simple it really is and how beautiful the out come will be!
Each flower we made takes 5 pieces of paper and each half circle takes 6 flowers, so in all we folded 1440 pieces of paper! It took 5 people 150 hours to finally complete this project it was a lot of work but it turned out to beautiful!
Hope you love it as much as I do! Please leave comments I’d love to know what you think!
love these! so bright and colorful! thanks for sharing!
This is awesome! Thanks for the tutorial. I was looking for something fun for our craft room walls!

Thanks for your beautiful blog. I did not know how to contact you other than this site. I was wondering if you might be interested in attending our Vietnamese Heritage Camp in Estes Park, Colorado from July 22-24 – as a Vietnamese Role Model? The camp is for kids adopted from Vietnam (one of whom is my own little girl:). They learn about Vietnamese food, clothes, games, language… and of course role models- which you are:) I hope this message reaches you.
Thank you very much

Hi Chloe, I made my first flower and it turned out awesome. I had a little trouble stapling them even, so I put all 5 petals together and placed double sided tape in between to hold them, and then I stapled them. Worked out pretty good, but the centers are not as cleaned up as yours. I will keep trying though….thanx for the video and this awesome idea.
Thanks for sharing .I ‘m admired you talent .Wishing you have more successful.
Wow. i made 1 and itz fantastic
Really cool. i was wondering how to hang the ball.
