Oragami

Origami

The art of Japanese paper folding. An activity when accompanied with great patience awards relaxation and accomplishment.

This is true if you have patience. I do not. I often look up origami and have attempted many creations such as birds, stars, dragons and the all mighty crane. Attempted is the keyword.  I usually get to step 4 of the instructions and find it nearly impossible to continue.

I don't know if the instructions are translated from Japanese but I find them written in a way that is hard to follow.

Origami is not relaxing. It's stressful and always ends up with ripped up pieces of paper in the trash. Origami fun becomes Origami frustration.
