One of my hobbies is origami (折り紙) or Japanese art of paper folding. Hence when the Toilet Paper Origami (TPO) popped up in my Facebook News Feed, it caught my attention immediately.
Have you ever notice the toilet papers in hotels' rest rooms? Many upscale hotels have janitors who fold the toilet papers after cleaning. Hence, seeing such TPO reminded me of my hotel stays. That in turn gives me the feeling of being on a vacation/staycation.
I tried my hands at some of them:
 |
| Classical triangle fold |
 |
| Pleat fold |
 |
| Origami leaf |
 |
| Origami tree |
 |
| Origami bird |
I guess if I want to recreate the feeling of being on vacation/staycation while enjoying the comfort of my home, I will fold a TPO ;)
By the way, it seems like the TPO diagrams are arranged in difficulty level: ranging from basic folds such as the Classic Triangle Fold (about 2 to 3 steps), to more complicated folds such as the Origami Bird (more than 10 steps).
Each fold would probably take you no more than 10 minutes (assuming that you have some experience with origami). Oh~ with Christmas just around the corner, you might want to consider folding the TPO tree to add a festive touch ;) So, do give them a try!
