Origami Demonstrate at Sydney Flagship Store

Origami Hearts for Valentine’s Day

Cartier Sydney
Celebrate the Valentine’s Day with Origami Hearts!

.

In 2024, this year I demonstrated the origami hearts at the very popular store, Cartier in Sydney.

There was a queue outside the store to get special gifts for their loved ones.
I was so happy to help celebrate the customers with my origami hearts.

Another huge successful workshop! My origami Workshop for Adults class was full 2 weeks before the workshop!
Even Mr Kiya, the consul-General of Japan, Sydney had attended with his wife.
We made two different boxes and many twist roses.

Thank you very much for all the participants.

I also received some wonderful reviews about the workshop.
Here is one of them:
Midori is a lovely, patient, knowledgeable teacher who always has her students making amazing things and loving what they have made. Midori is a very experienced and talented origami practitioner who also inspires students with new levels of origami items they can aspire to making. She supplies great materials and notes and you learn more about what you can use to make origami in each class.
Thank you, Anne. You are awesome!
Big thanks to Jun-san & Hitomi-san, the Kintsugi Australia for letting me use the space.

Do you know origami? Have you folded origami before?
Come and join the free origami workshop at Japan Expo on Saturday 3rd September!
Origami isn’t only for making flowers and animals. You can make a unique origami puzzle toy. Using your own fingers and brains are a great exercise for your health. The research shows that origami helps children in developing their thinking & mathematical skills and helps adults in keeping healthy lives. They say making origami is good because when people concentrate creating origami pieces, they stop thinking about their daily worries for a while.
Do you know that Origami, the traditional Japanese craft, is used not only in art, fashion & craft but also in architecture, space science and medical science? Origami attracts scientists and engineers attention. Do you know the airbags in cars use origami designs?
The origami techniques save people’s lives! Isn’t it amazing?!
Some fun origami kits and origami accessories with the top quality Yuzen ‘washi’ paper are for sale.
Booth Number 2
12.30-4pm (Children must attend with adult supervision.)
Register JAPAN EXPO 2022
( Leading JAPAN’s Food, Travel and Culture exhibition )
Looking forward to meeting you there!
