Boats that float and birds that fly. Jumping frogs, party hats, and an angel to top the Christmas tree. From the origami master Margaret Van Sicklen, author of the original Origami calendar, and including designs from a who's who of origami (Florence Temko, John Montroll, Robert Lang), here is an origami extravaganza. Featuring scores of models that begin easy and grow more complex as the year progresses and colorful printed pages that double as origami paper, it promises a year of folding fun. The projects range from classics passed down through generations to more contemporary forms, including a rabbit folded from a dollar bill. With history, lore and fun facts, and a separate 16-page Origami Key.
Margaret Van Sicklen, self-described "origami swami," is the author of Joy of Origami and the bestselling Origami Page-A-Day calendar. She lives in New York City and Santa Barbara, California.

October 20, 2004: I loved this calendar. Most of the instructions were pretty easy to follow. I tacked them up on my bulletin board in my office each day, and after a few weeks I had quite the conversation piece. =)
