According to Wikipedia, origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. The word origami originated from oru which means ‘folding’ and kami meaning ‘paper.’

There are only a few different folds used in creating this craft, but these folds can be combined in various ways to represent an object. This is done by using geometric folds and creases, usually without gluing or cutting the paper. What is fascinating about this is that this is done using only one sheet of paper. The finished creations are often very amazing, appearing to be complicated to create.
