User / De Rode Olifant / Origami Fairy (Yoshihisa Kimura)
Marjan Smeijsters / 4,248 items
I love this origami "Fairy" by Yoshihisa Kimura, it's a golden oldie and still a favorite of mine.
I thought to write a little story about these two ice-fairies, that they are in doubt if they should leave already or stay a little bit longer to spread their magic to the people.
But while taking this photo, I noticed I was humming the song of Peter Sarstedt "Where Do You Go To My Lovely" and also remembering the words of the chorus:

"But where do you go to my lovely
When you're alone in your bed
Tell me the thoughts that surround you
I want to look inside your head, yes I do."

Funny, how the mind works. So now you have two stories.;-)
If you want to listen to the song, just click here.


Design "Fairy": Yoshihisa Kimura

There is also a turorial.
Each 'fairy' is folded from two pieces of paper:
- body: 15x15cm
- head: a square 15x15cm diagonally in half
