Pacon paper
Thanks for the pointer to Pacon paper, Sara - looks like I can order it via the US Amazon store (not found anywhere in the UK, alas). Great snowflake - must fold that NOW!

...just checked the Amazon.com link - the bad news is that it's sold via a 3rd-party seller (School Specialty) who don't ship to the UK. Definitely a paper to watch out for though. Do you know of a UK supplier?

Bad news
Sorry, I don't. Thus far I've had a friend send me the paper from the US. That makes it a lot more expensive, but I do love that paper.

Is It
Is it possible to use kami or copy paper for that model and not get a hole? Like, maybe folding it slowly will help?

great! thanks a lot...
Hi Sara,
Thank you for creating and sharing this instructional video with us. I always wait for Christmas themed origami designs from you......will be folding a couple of these for my living room window.
Btw...speaking of Christmas themed decoration, I folded Paolo Bascetta's Star to put up as a tree topper. Thanks for the links to the instructional video! http://origamiancy.c...

Not this year
Before Christmas 2010? No, I fear not. After all, Christmas is in less than a week. :)
But I will make more Christmas origami videos... next year. Do you have any specific models in mind?
