Nice assortment of paper. I bought it to do origami boxes and the weight of the paper is heavier than most which was beneficial.The large size of the paper works well since you can use it full size or quarter it to make a smaller nesting boxes.The colors and patterns are subtle and sophisticated. The double-sided patterns are complimentary and for the most part contrast well.For example, if you're making Tomoko Fuse's hexagonal boxes in her Origami Boxes book, you'll probably want paper that has strong enough contrast so that the star burst center of the box shows up well against the main color of the box.Most all of the paper in the packet has nice contrasting values. The flip side of the paper is reversed in color from the primary side of the paper (i.e. if the pattern is green and white on side 1, it's white and green on side 2).
the papers are double-sided and the colors are vibrant. the patterns don't distract from any design you choose to fold. i only wish i had bought two!
My six year old son loves the origami paper because of it's fun and interesting colors. Unlike traditional origami paper which is colored on one side and white on the other, this paper is colored on both sides. Most of the paper has a dark side and a light side which makes it easier for beginners to know which way to fold. It is good paper and good fun!
I like the size of this paper (8 1/4 inches) It is good for big hands and for small hands. It comes in six different patterns and is double sided in that there is a pattern printed on both sides. One side is a pattern and the other side is the same pattern with the colors reversed. See my accompanying picture for the patterns. This package also comes with a small booklet that shows you how to fold six different items like (see my accompanying picture) a kimono, crane, Star box, lantern, fishing boat,and Hashi Wrapper which is good for holding chopsticks or pencils . The paper itself is pretty good and it holds sharp creases and is durable. So, if you are a beginner this is a good paper for you. It is also good paper for kids because of the durability and the larger size. And as a little bonus you also get a nice sheet of gold paper which you can save for a special project.
I bought 3 packages of this paper from Tuttle via . I wanted the larger 9 inch size to learn more complicated folding. The paper is kind of glossy - so the true form of the model is kind of lost. Plus the ink they used in the papers comes off in my hands. However I could have lived with all of that ....Except for one thing. I believe the manufacturer should not have listed these as origami papers. The paper is thick. So thick it is impossible to fold any model more complicated than folding a letter for an envelope. Because of the thickness, the paper is useless for me. It was only when I received the package that I noticed it said for the beginner folder. That should have been noted in big letters by the manufacturer. All they stressed in the product image was that the patterns were traditional. Meaning the manufacturer already knew it was thick and not usable for the vast majority of origami models.I would have liked to send it back, but unfortunately I used some of the papers.Next time I will look only for those papers that have some kind of product description - an indication whether the manufacturer stands by their product. I used to buy wonderful Japanese and Chinese children's books from Tuttle. Beautifully printed and presented. That is why I trusted buying these papers. Too bad, how far their standards have descended.
I am thrilled that this paper is double sided, which I didn't realize when I bought it. I have never seen double sided Origami paper. The patterns are lovely. The paper is not cheapy thin at all, like toy store papers. Because I am starting again after many years, I am pleased that with the pattern on both sides, my little mistakes won't be as obvious! As I increase in skill I feel the double side will give me more scope for creativity. Will buy again!
The designs are OK, but not as "traditional" as I expected.Also, the paper is too heavy, so the folds do not crease as well as would be expected, and the completed projects do not lay flat (despite being pressed under heavy books.)The front and backs of the paper are both patterned, and in some cases, the patterns are so close that it's difficult to see what's happening as you fold.I purchased 4 packs, and had I used this paper first, I would have purchased another brand. I expect the paper has changed since the earlier reviews (they note that the paper was thin... it is not thin enough any longer).The size is great, particularly if you are getting back into folding, or are just beginning.I hope this is helpful.
Very generous with 49 sheets (not washi texture, but printed on shiny paper like the pages of the book) and you don't usually get large sheets like this 8 1/4"; the prints are NOT flowery but modified Japanese motifs. I rate this 4 stars only because i like kimono/obi prints better for my origami projects than prints that came with this book.P.S. If you prefer vintage kimono or obi prints in this series, get: Origami Paper Kimono Patterns Small 6 3/4 or Origami Paper Kimono Patterns Large 8 1/4.
