Elephant, that's a great addition to the paper menagerie! Oh for sure. I learned my lesson after carelessly chucking that raggedy little octopus from last year. At least we have the pictures, @ddschteinn.

"Island of Misfit Toys", that's a brilliant idea, especially since I've got the all-inclusive group diorama coming together in my mind. I could incorporate a literal island.

This origami journey is so much fun, I feel so happy that I decided to give it a go! The off-shoot ideas and conversations that have stemmed from the journey are the best part, next to the learning.
