I could find only one photo I had posted online. It was on a board gaming site 
where the use of origami had been discussed, the specifics since forgotten by 
me. It was hardly my favorite ornament, as I had posted it more for the masu 
box I had made to store the ornaments in. The box was made with Canson Tientes 
paper which made the boxes pretty sturdy.

I had made twelve different ornaments and three boxes to store them. Yes, my 
mother did like them. I overheard her pointing them out and mentioning to a 
friend of hers that I had made them. I felt like the little boy again.

I don't fold much anymore. My children grew older and much of my free time went 
to them. I hope in a few years that I will find more time for origami and some 
other interests that have been put to the side. As an aside, I did find the 
thick paper limited the thickness or complexity of the folds I could do.

Thanks,

Doug Peterson
