It is said that when one folds 1000 origami paper cranes they are granted a wish.
Here’s a link to a great video showing you how to fold a crane. Will you or have you ever attempted to create 1000 paper cranes? What are some of the ways you would display them?
Absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to try it.
These are so unbelievably beautiful. I’m about to watch the video, so I can get started.
The branch covered in birds is absolutely stunning. I picked up some origami paper so that I can make myself one for my living room!
I have tried making 1000. I got to about 350 and just couldn’t do it anymore
Ahah thats amazing!!! I would make about 13 and stop! do you still have them?? maybe make one per day cause you got so far, why stop?
Made it to 100 in two days with help of my 8 yearold sister. She loved doing it. Took her a while to learn but she loved it. We made a papercrane rainbow in out room over our closet.
I made 1000 cranes in 19 days. I didn’t do the baby ones but it was still difficult. They’re all over my room now. :3
Oh my gosh! That’s amazing(:
Love them in an ornament. Clever and so simple!
I’ve gotten to 600 and my ex threw them away when we broke up. Now I just make them out of whatever I can at the time, and leave them in random places where ever I go.
Oh my!! That was not very nice of him!! but that is adorable I love that idea of just leaving them all over.
When I was in fourth grade my teacher gave our class a few minutes each day and with a whole class making them-we got up to 1000 fairly quickly.
My roommate and I have had paper cranes hanging from our dorm room ceiling since our freshman year. They’re the first thing people notice and they just love them!
Adorable!!

I have made thousand cranes long back but could not think of something to arrange them.But here i have found some good ideas .I hope I would soon put them to use instead of those lying in the bowl.
Thanks

My fiance and I are currently in the middle of folding 1000 origami cranes for our wedding in june! we’ve got about 550 right now, still going strong!
Congratulations! That will be beautiful!
I made a 1000 when we were in the adoption process. My daughter kept her favourite ones. Now we are in the adoption process again for 2 more brothers and we are talking about maybe doing it again as a family.
I made a bunch of different sizes using scrapboook paper trimmed to different sizes. That worked great because there were similar/same patterns in different sizes so it looked really cool.
this website inspires me to be an artist! i love making random crafts,but when i saw this i was inpresed
Comments like yours inspire me to keep updating this website, thank you <3

this looks cool but maybe u should put up instructions on how to make the bird cause somebody showed me but i forgot thanks ill come back
I have a video link at the bottom!
These are so beautiful. During the year that I was abused, I made 1000 for a history teacher because he was so kind to me. I was never able to tell him exactly what was going on, or what gave me the motivation, but it meant a great deal to me to be able to give him that gift on my 17th birthday.
