Icosahedron Module??
Is it me, or does the module look a bit like the Tornillo (sp?) module? Or did Bascetta design the Tornillo module?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can clear this up for me.
Looks great!
Hi Sara,
I like the color combination you have chosen for this model. Looks like you are gearing up for Christmas, already. A great fold nonetheless, will make a good hanging for the Christmas tree!
Christmas decorations
Heh, got me. Yes, indeed, I'm celebrating Christmas at my place for the first time, and my husband doesn't want to buy Christmas decorations. Which only leaves one option: I fold them. :)

It is better...
It is better to fold Christmas decorations than to buy them in my mind, it's less expensive(: Also, it's something you can keep. I actually fold something for every holiday I can.(Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, St. Patrick's Day,4th of July)
Ah, price isn't everything
Actually, when you factor in the time needed it's not necessarily less expensive. ;) But it is nicer to have, yes. As to keeping - we'd keep the Christmas decoration we buy, too - but probably hide it in a box until next Christmas. I guess the origami decorations I simply have to move to a less visible display area. :)
