Hi everyone, welcome to all the new subscribers, and hello again to all you regular origami lovers!
Now its a very exciting time of year with Christmas fast approaching, so you'll have to watch out for the Christmas Newsletter Special coming to your inbox in a few days! I have some great creative things I would like to share with you about how to make your Christmas beautiful and personal... with great inexpensive or free gift & decoration ideas.

Free Origami Paper
Because last month's newsletter was a halloween special (thanks for all your great comments about my halloween page) I didn't get a chance to give you guys some more free printable paper! aaawwww! So I've uploaded 2 more sets for you here:

Enjoy!
I've also put up a little form where you can tell me what sort of paper patterns/images you would like to see on the paper that I upload in the future - that would be really helpful!

Amazing Origami
We're talking tiny cranes!
I've found an article about the smallest crane, made using a square of paper only 0.1 x 0.1mm big....! Thats one tenth of a millimetre long! Check out this amazing article here:

Origami Masters
This month I'm having another look at an old favourite of mine: Brian Chan. Brian creates the most incredible insects and creepy crawlies, as well as some pretty amazing sci fi characters as well. I found Brian's website quite a few years ago, and his incredible models are one of the main reasons why I got so interested in origami. You must see them!
