ABOUT US

Our Story:

Origami World was launched from an idea by my 13 year old son (in 2019) who asked the question “Can we turn our origami hobby into a business?”. Today, our is vision for everyone to experience origami and bring joy to those receiving them.

There is a misconception that origami is just a fun activity for kids. Origami is far more than that. Yes it is a fun activity often enjoyed by kids who also benefit from improved STEM learning, it is great mindfulness activity for adults and can help the elderly improve their hand eye coordination and for mental health. Other benefits of doing origami is that it can help boost self esteem, confidence and gives you a sense of achievement after all you literally turned an ordinary piece of paper into a masterpiece that YOU created. You can also pass this forward and give your creation as a gift to someone special.

Origami transforms lives one fold at a time.

We want to inspire people to appreciate origami. To enjoy the experience of transforming a piece of paper into something they treasure and be proud of their accomplishment every time they look at their creation.

We also want to educate the community on the significance of the paper crane which is a symbol of hope, peace & happiness.
