I folded origami, so look at it!

Hello, this is NAGINOWA staff.

Have you ever heard of origami, a traditional Japanese game?
As the name suggests, it refers to the act of folding colored or patterned paper to make animals, food, and other shapes.
In Japan, it is known as a hand game played by infants, but it is also used in nursing homes because the detailed manual work is said to be good for brain exercise.
It is good to play with simple colored paper, but it is also fun to play with “chiyogami,” paper decorated with lovely Japanese patterns.
Today, I, the author, folded a cat and a heart using chiyogami paper, and I would like to share it with you in a photo.

What do you think? We were able to create a very cute "Kawaii" piece of work!

You may think it has nothing to do with bonsai at all, but there is another way to enjoy bonsai: making bonsai shapes out of origami and appreciating them.
If you are interested, please search it out on the internet.

If you like, please take a look at NAGINOWA's high-quality Japanese bonsai pots and gardening supplies!
Well, that's all for today.
I will share more of my wonderful works here when I make them again.
Thank you!
