Lazlo Original #50

There is an interesting story behind the brown paper I used for the bases of this model. I began the project with the intent of using coral and brown paper and I chose a light brown parchment paper for the bases. As I folded them I discovered the paper was too brittle and it separated at the seams during folding. This left me with a dilemma, as I had no other brown paper and I had already finished the coral petals. The answer came in the form of paper grocery bags in just the right shade of brown. The model is 6 inches in diameter and due to the heavy duty grocery bag paper, is very sturdy.

    Very neat, I would have never thought of using grocery bag paper for origami.
