Question:

Can you make an origami crane?

It's got to be the most famous of all designs in the art.

Answer:

I lived in Japan and one time I saw a huge collage made of 1001 origami cranes- shaped to look like the city of Kushiro. Maybe they can be arranged in the shape of a heart, a yin-yang symbol, a cherry blossom tree, or the cranes can be geometrically positioned to add visual interest. Other asian ideas: Red is a lucky color. Pine trees are symbols of longevity. Bamboo/ oranges/ money trees are symbols of prosperity. 2 mandarin ducks symbolize love. Lotus blossom symbolizes purity. Peonies symbolize romance/ fertility. The double happiness symbol also promotes happy marriages. Also, you could photocopy a 100 dollar bill- both sides- 1001 times and fold each bill into a crane. Then hang them from your money tree. You can also hang gold ignots on the tree, available in most Chinese gift shops. Have fun!
I can actually I made a thousand of them one time I learned in 8th grade and it stuck with me.
NOOOOO! I can't! It frustrates me so much. (Got an origami kit for my b-day) But at least I can make a butterfly... and I used to know how to make a penguin when I was like 7
