My Website

I am proud to announce that my origami book, Origami for Busy People: 27 Original On-The-Go Projects, was published in November 2011 by Tuttle Publishing. Origami for Busy People is the first book designed so that busy people can fit the fascinating art of paper folding into their hectic schedule. Through easy to follow instructions, the full-color book shows you how to fold 27 previously unpublished fun projects. The projects can be created from the 48 sheets of origami paper included with the book or from commonly available paper. You will make the projects by using only folds - no glue, no tape, no scissors. For details and photographs of the completed projects click here. For photographs of scenes and arrangements created from some of the completed projects click here.

My goal for this website is to share the enchanting art of paperfolding with you by showing how to make origami creations using instructions that you will find easy to understand. For your enjoyment, I have also included galleries with photographs of origami creations that I have designed. I am an experienced teacher of origami and designer of origami projects. I am the author of the origami book, Origami for Busy People: 27 Original On-The-Go Projects, which was published by Tuttle Publishing in November 2011. In celebration of my book being published, I have included bonus ideas for a few projects of Origami for Busy People. I will be adding to the diagrams, galleries, and bonus ideas in the future so please check back periodically. Please send your questions and comments to marciajoymiller@hotmail.com.
