Halloween origami

I will go back to wedding origami (specifically origami flowers) tomorrow, but I thought for Hallowe'en you might like to see some decorations you can make with basic origami models. There are some easy-to-follow illustrated directions here.

The cube-shaped jack o'lanterns are made using the waterbomb base. If you don't know how to make that model, there is a video here. Once the flat model is folded, you inflate it to a squared-off ball by blowing into the open pointed end.

With any of the models, you can apply the jack o'lantern faces with markers or paper cutouts. Make a bunch of them and string them together as a cute holiday garland!
