So I had this cute as all hell little lizard origami paper, but I didn’t want to use it in a regular model, so I used a bow diagram I found and I’m thinking maybe I’ll put it on a clip and wear it. It’s not pure origami but the results are great. [Diagram]

This is a nifty piece of action origami I made for a friend. It’s a desk toy, you just push it down and it comes back up. I got it out of Origami to Astonish and Amuse.

Bouquet I made for mother’s day. I weighted the bottom of the bottle with glass stones; pretty and effective at reducing top heaviness! I just made a handful of rosebuds and irises, not much variety in the folds, but a lot of different colors.

This is a selection of pharmacological labels from the early days when medicines were first required to actually tell you what was in them. On the right is the kit with which the labels were glued onto the bottles.

The story we were told was that a woman working for the university was translating this page about a mechanical book wheel, which would store twelve rotating books that were always kept at a reading angle for the viewer. Her husband looked over and said “I could build that!”
And so he did.
