Origami Flower Beginners & Aspirists: Save Your Time By Avoiding The Grunt Work & Frustration That Comes With Getting Good!

"They Laughed At Him When He Said He Had Learned How To Do Origami Flowers With Kung Fu Prowess In Record Time, But When He Began Folding..."

Crazy Stories Like This Deserve To Be Heard...

From:

Hey,

I used to be just like you are now – developing an interest in origami as a long term activity or just to learn a cool new skill to have some fun.

So, I set out and rummaged through all the origami flower resources online that actually seemed good, sort of like you are probably doing right now and I even got my hands on a few books.

When I shared my interest with some people they just responded with a wrinkled-nose look as if they were thinking “Origami??” or gave me an unconvincing “Cool” with an irritating smirk…

“Oh, you want to give some girl an origami flower or something? That’s so sweeeet” – Eck… And that sucks hearing even more coming from girls… and even worse is – that was the truth!

Talk about taking my spirit and stomping the heck out of it...

Broken, I was still determined to have the last laugh but before I tell you how my origami instruction adventure panned out please give me a tiny bit of your valuable time while I explain what planted the seed for all of this.

You see, I’m a shy guy, and during the summer of 2007 there was this college chick that worked at a local coffee shop that I never used to go to – but she made a semi-regular customer out of me.

She was the kind of chick that made me go, “I wish there were girls like that in the college I went to!”

The natural and cool demeanor I have around people that I know well just flies out the window when around someone who gives me the stomach butterflies - that feel like they have been given steroids!

You know what I’m talkin’ about...

You want to be bedazzle them by actually discovering how to do something that requires some time, skill and thoughtfulness.

I decided that making an origami money flower to drop in the tip jar would be something that would get noticed.

My “buddies” thought that was a wussy thing to do but I was convinced that if I did everything with a relaxed attitude, in a non-creepy way like it was no big deal, it would be OK.

And I hope you don’t have to go through what I did…

I was sure that on the internet there would be some quick and easy videos or fun diagrams with written instructions that would fit me to a ‘T’

But to my disgust and disillusionment, what I found was mostly web sites full of ads with no real actionable information that send visitors into endless loops of clicking through their links to the next web site encountering zilch.

And just when I found something that seemed promising it didn’t cut it either. I was a true beginner and they sucked as far as I was concerned.

I had no choice but to skedaddle to the library to look through what they had and I didn’t find a book just on making origami paper flowers but there were some paper craft books.

I surfed my way through these books as if each page were a wave I had to painfully overcome, zipping over titles like, "The Expert Book of Paper Crafts" or "The Complete Origami Manual", which are as thick as an encyclopedia that most people would want to hack at with a medieval axe just to make them into more digestible chunks.

I found nothing that was simple enough for me as a beginner – mind numbingly boring technical instructions and the follow along pictures sucked big time as if they weren’t meant for the instructions that came with them.

After spending a few hours going through every "Paper Craft Encyclopedia" and every rinky-dink paper craft pop up book for toddlers, I finally realized after standing in a pool of my own sweat that my time would have been better spent doing almost any other activity.

There they are, telling you to do Step A, then B and then C and you are looking at the illustrations for each step wanting to pull your hair out because you can't figure out for the life of you how they went from one shape to the next one, which looks almost completely different!

I scanned all the little text instructions wondering if I missed anything...

Nope. I didn’t.

"Push the sides in and bring the end up"

Yea, thanks a lot. You can do that and you still don't know what they are talking about! Your flower isn't looking at all like what they are showing…

By then a few hours had zipped by and the library was closing.

The librarian had already snarled at me 5 times that I had to get out, accompanied with dirtier and dirtier looks with each successive warning…

Man, I had to hurry up!..

I was determined to find a flower to do that day so that I could put my origami master moves on the girl at the coffee shop that night.

What was I gonna do?

I finally settled on one of the origami flowers that I hoped would seem simple enough to pull off – as a money flower!

Talk about unrealistic expectations.

But while not everyone is an enthusiast who wants to invest the time to become a paper flower master with Kung Fu folding fingers and Aikido wrist action I needed to be before the day was gone.

I snatched the book in a hurry that I thought had the flower I intended on doing and prayed silently that it was the right one.

I checked that sucker out and while I was doing this the librarian that had been giving me the evil eye shook her head like I was some kind of a delinquent…

That evening was not off to a good start...

I sped home and after I bolted through the doorway I landed on my couch as I pulled out all the 1 dollar bills I had in my pocket and figured out the time I had left.

With a total of two hours before I had to meet my “friends” to head up to that trendy coffee shop (that I only wanted to go to for one reason - I hate trendy places!) I had to get my brain in gear and adapt the flower to the rectangular shape of a dollar bill.

Folding the thing into a square as the basic shape to start out with made it even thicker and try as I might I couldn’t get the hang of it.

The clock was ticking away and was not being kind to me.

Just as I was cursing at the darn thing hoping time would stand still the door bell rang and for a split second I thought it was the alarm on the clock telling me, “Time’s up, pal!”

Screaming, “Hey, just go wait in the car I’ll be right there” I managed to buy myself a couple of minutes.

Just when I suspected they were getting pissed off I was able to put a couple of flowers together.

It helped that the sweat on my hands had made the bills more manageable...

I yanked at my jacket and as I ran out without my keys and leaving the door unlocked I was trying desperately to hide the money flowers in one of the jacket pockets so that they wouldn’t see them, hoping they wouldn’t get smooshed.

On the way there I was relieved no one had asked what I was doing or remembered about my little origami money flower plan although I didn’t get away with being asked suspiciously if I had taken a shower.

“Woops”...

My heart was racing as we were approaching the destination point and I realized I didn’t really have a plan for delivering the heart warming gift for the coffee shop girl.

I ran through scenarios in my mind such as using a couple of unfolded bills to pay for whatever it was I would get, then whipping out the flowers and asking...

“I’m out of regular money, but do you take… theeese?”

As I woke up from that fantasy I could see the coffee shop in the near distance and my heart pumped harder and faster...

We got to the parking lot, stopped and I reluctantly got out of the car, staggering like a drunken fool.

I finally made it inside the coffee shop following the group that brought me there and the place was packed!

And do you know what I hear out loud?

“So, dude, are you gonna give her those orimago flowers? Haw, haw, haw”

*Bleep*hole, illiterate son of a *bleep*

Then they order me to get them what they wanted since I was the only one still standing.

Great, not only am I having trouble thinking about how I’m gonna pull this off cool but now I have to remember their orders and recalculate how much it’ll all cost so that I know to deduct two origami dollars from the total, which I was going to fling at this chick!

You must remember my state… simple math was nearly impossible at this point...

So I walked over to the counter really slow and noticed it was some other chick…

My girl was standing behind her making some mocho-choco-latte sprinkled with roach droppings or whatever and they were sort of taking turns doing what had to be done.

So I beat around the bush but then she was finally at the register and I snuck in line cutting in front of some guy who had his head turned talking to somebody.

I was hoping he hadn’t noticed... but he did, and made some comment under his breath.

I ignored it hoping I wouldn’t get a whoopin’ and when I looked at her she was giving me the dreaded librarian look!

“Um” I mumbled, followed by my order.

I thought I was going to be sick right there...

Everything was going wrong.

Now this guy is poking me in the back at an uneven rhythm and I could hear the occasional “Ey, ey. Yoo der”

I pretended it wasn’t happening, hoped that this guy wasn't some psycho and that his patience would last until I left the line so that I could get out of there.

The goddess came back with the order and ran off the total to me.

I handed her the money except for the 2 origami flowers and then I paused for two seconds before catapulting one of the flowers at her hitting her above the right breast and I tried to pull off the little line I had planned...

“Um, that’s all I got, but take… thaaat?”

She looked at me like I had mental problems...

She grabbed the flower and didn’t realize what it was supposed to be.

What was I thinking?

She tells me I’m a dollar short, while rolling her eyes as she chews her gum really loud and exhales upward blowing on the bangs that hung over her forehead.

I apologized profusely and tripped over every "sorry" as I handed her another dollar.

“I’m such a stupid idiot” I said to myself “I meant to give her both flowers… but that’s okay, now I have one to throw in the tip jar”

So right when I say “That’s for you” and throw the flower in the tip jar she turned around and didn’t see me do it!

I reach in the jar quickly to get a chance at a do over when she does turn around, catching me with my hand in the jar and gives me the librarian look and snarl!

“Oh, no you see I put that in there but you didn’t see so I, uh…”

She told me to get lost!

Stuck up little princess...

Then Mr. Hokey Pokey behind me says, “I wanned ta be a gentleman in frunna da ladies but I wanna talk to ya afta so don’t go far der…”

I wandered away cowering but still mustered the courage to turn my head and then I saw my Ex pointing at me while talking to the manager.

My friends were close enough to see everything and hear most of it and they would not let me forget about it.

I dropped everyone’s stuff on their table and headed out walking home, not caring it would take me an hour.

At the very least the door was unlocked when I got back... because I had forgotten my keys.

For months they made fun of me telling me all the he said she said crap because the story got around at the coffee shop and from what I hear the psycho I cut in front of was looking for me for two weeks...

I continued slowing figuring out origami flowers and doing them in private, teaching myself and keeping to myself…

Until a few months after the incident…
