Origami Paper

With origami paper, you’ll be able to fold your favorite origami artfully and with precision. There are different sizes and colors to choose from so your sculpture can be beautiful the way you want them to be. I highly recommend using actual origami paper instead of regular 8½x11 paper. Sometimes you don’t want your origami so big or just plain white.

I’ve compiled a list of origami paper from Amazon below so you don’t have to go searching for them like I did. The image is on the left side and a description is on the right. Origami paper is absolutely necessary if you want your work to turn out nice. Just try it once and you’ll never look back.
