Origami rose video and tutorial

Hmmm, lamanya x update blog ni. Tq, readers for your kind words. Especially for origami rose post. Since it is the most popular post in my blog, so today i am gonna upload videos and link some website on how to do the origami rose.

Actually, the rose was folded by Toshikazu Kawasaki hence the rose was named Kawasaki rose. The method of folding the rose has been modified and simplified by time and persons make me confused which one was the original one. But that that not an important issue as either one of it, it is still beautiful as you fold it in your own way.

I learn how to fold the rose from a japanese website by following the steps which clearly shown by detail photographs. Thank to the author, but i hope it will be available in english: Oribara web Just click on the button at the top with yellow origami rose and no 1.

Here are 2 videos from youtube to assist you to visualize the processes:


a stop motion video:


Advices: It is a very complex folding instructions and not for beginners. So if you are a beginner, do fold crane or lily first and proceed with the rose when you are ready to fold such a complex origami.

Please do try until you succeed, failure is not an option. If i can do it, you can too ;-) Good luck...

Lyrics:

許冠傑 - 浪子心聲 (Lang Zi xin sheng) From the Heart of a Loafer (English translation) - Sam Hui

It’s not easy to distinguish between truth and falsehood,
Many humans are deceitful at heart,
How many of them would share prosperity with you,
To equally share even the water drops from the rim of a roof.

I was an ignorant frog in a well,
Looking in vain for prestige and fame,
Self-conceited and short-sighted,
I never expected my elegant house would one day become dilapidated wreck.

We’ll eventually gain whatever as fate would have it,
We better not to strive too hard for something not destined for us.
We’ll meet thunders and storms,
But we don’t have to be scared.

Happiest are those who have a fair mind and a clear conscience,
And who perform good deeds whenever possible.
We’ll eventually gain whatever as fate would have it,
We better not to strive too hard for something not destined for us.

Human beings are just like the sand in the sea,
But we don’t have to be scared.

You can see the evening glow all over the sky,
It’ll soon disappear like mist; so do fame and fortune.
You can see the evening glow all over the sky,
It’ll soon disappear like mist; so do fame and fortune.
