Description

The listing, Origami Peace Cranes (364+) has ended.

Handmade craft / Handcrafted by me
364+ total peace cranes (as opposed to 'flapping' crane)
using 7.5 x 7.5 cm origami paper

Great for creating Hanging Mobiles or Decorating a Christmas Tree or Decorating in general.
Wings are still not spread; however, once opened, it's gorgeous!

Started the project of creating Japanese Origami Peace Cranes after finding it's origins:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadako_Sasaki

The story of the little girl attempting to fold a thousand origami cranes before her death is touching.

Great for gifting also.
note: Sadly, they do NOT come stringed up.

What I have logged in inventory
32 pale yellow, 36 dark pale yellow, 32 dark yellow, 36 yellow plain, 32 dark baby blue, 36 royal blue, 32 dark royal blue, 32 turquoise blue, 32 light royal blue, 32 dark blue, 32 baby sky blue, and more. So far, these are the ones that I have logged in, and separated.

will not come in these containers; will be packaged accordingly via usps standards.

Happy Bidding!
Whoever 'wins' these items, best luck to you.

I agree; a Traditional Christmas Tree, "Charlie Brown Christmas Tree", or even one without leaves and just just bare branches; that'll work too.
Thank you very much; I appreciate your comment
