In my search for a video that might be considered interesting by other bored internet surfers, I asked myself, “What can I do that is remotely interesting?” The answer I got back was, “Well, I know how to fold a piece of paper into a flower!” Thus, the origami flower video was born…

After practicing twice, and recording one video with the url at the beginning missing the important “one” word, I finally got it right. With a little video editing to speed up the boring parts, I posted it to Revver.

In the first day, it shot up to the front page of Video Bomb, which is better than I can say for any of my other videos. No one thought it digg-worthy, though. Oh well.

The flower is all I know how to make, really, but I might try to learn another form and record another video. I think the concept isn’t a bad one.

By the way, have you ever tried writing upside down and backwards? It ain’t easy!

  1. Very nice. How about those nice little boxes made from used greeting cards?

  2. Yeah. I’ve forgotten how those were made. I’m sure Grandma remembers. Maybe I can re-learn in February.

    There are all kinds of things on origami.com, though.

  3. Shame I can’t get the video to play. Could be my browser settings or something. I tried the other link at digg and couldn’t see it either, but I’m sure you did a great job of making it!
