It’s a bird, a boat, a hat, a flower! For kids, for craft lovers, for whole families, the Origami Calendar is a year of paper-folding fun from origami master Margaret Van Sicklen. Here is everything origami artists—beginning or advanced—need to create their very own collections of charming paper figures. Included are detailed, easy-to-follow instructions for hundreds of models: a snail folded from a dollar bill, a boomerang plane that makes a roundtrip flight, a modular crown—be royalty for a day. The models begin easy and grow more complex as your skills improve over the year. The pages double as folding paper. Featuring eight brilliant colors and bold graphics, these paper designs are original to the calendar and found nowhere else.

The best thing about this calendar is that it gives you something new and interesting to fold five days a week (the weekends are on one page). The author does a great job of choosing models that are surprising and fun without being too complex. (And if you like this calendar, check out the book, THE JOY OF ORIGAMI by Margaret Van Sicklen. It's the best origami book I've seen in ages--the paper alone is worth the price!)

I saw this calendar at a chain bookstore, but they stopped printing after 2005. So, I turned to trusty Amazon.com The calendar has a different piece of origami every day and the printing on the back matches the design - spots for turtles, faux wood grain for boxes, etc. Now, the only bad thing is that I have lots of designs on my desk at work and it may lead people to think you're not constructive! Designs take maybe 3-5 minutes to fold. A high recommendation.
