Arrow Origami crazy? Links, links, links....check them out.

You need to copy and paste the links below. If you just click on them, the page can't be found!!!!

I acctually wanted to help out a friend when I discovered Origami (yesterday). Now, I think of sooo many things you can do with them...for tags on presents...storage boxes...well, read and see for yourself.

First, before you start...if you are a beginner or intermediate folder, please review this page on origami basics, which covers folds and bases:
· Folds - valley fold, mountain fold, petal fold, rabbit ear, squash fold, reverse fold, crimp, sink
· Bases - preliminary base, bird base, waterbomb base, fish base

http://stud3.tuwien.ac.at/~e9825530/english/basics.html

And another site for the basics
