Subject: [Origami] More questions about origami earrings

Does it really look bad if the folds face the sides instead of the front?

As long as both sides of the tato look interesting it's no problem. But usually only one face is so maybe you could glue two back to back. Then it doesn't matter how much they move their head, the earrings will always look nice.

We'll be using clear nail polish.
That's it. Thank you in advance ; )

As Judith already wrote, nail polish is too agressive, especially for handmade paper. I use diluted standard white wood glue in 2 or 3 very thin layers. If the layers are too thick you'll end up with a white glow on the paper. It has to be a lot thinner than nail polish, more like milk. The same goes for Mod Podge which is more or less the same stuff. They're both great paper glues by the way.

Origards,
Miranda
