Origami and Kumi Korf workshops

I have been very busy the last two weekends making paper art. First, the

San Diego Origami Club

met and we learned to make this wonderful box structure. Last weekend I participated in two

Kumi Korf

workshops. The first workshop was a whirlwind of 5 book/box structures. The second was a kinetic book structure that is housed in a lovely box. I am still finishing up the second workshop projects, but it was a wonderful weekend and my head is now swimming with ideas. Below are some pictures of what I made as well as the diagram I created for the origami box structure. I hope you enjoy.
