I made these a year ago in Japan. My host family brought back Docomo cellphone company origami paper that was patterned with only the crease pattern to follow. It wasn’t that difficult. Here are the Docomo mushrooms!

I’m so excited! I just got Kamiya Satoshi’s second anthology of origami diagrams!!! I’ve been wanting to make his phoenix forever, and now I finally have the instructions!! :)
Now that classes are finally done (as is undergrad ><) I can fold a lot more! And spend time with my new book. :3
On another note, I’ve also made made a new blog for all the things I want to reblog but never do, since I have been trying to keep this one focused on my personal pictures. If you want to see what kind of things I would like to reblog but don’t, the url is: waterpaperthoughts.tumblr.com.
