DIY baseball memorabilia display

DIY Network has posted a video that shows the average person a creative way of displaying your sports memorabilia. I'm not really into collecting sports stuff, but the video is a neat reminder of rethinking the ways that you can display your collectibles. For instance, they show you how to turn all your trading cards into a nice picture frame. I may have to do this at some point in order to display my growing collection of origami cards and pieces!

Check out the video here.

And my origami piece for today is a bat - in homage to the baseball bats in this video!

Corrugated paper and the real link

In a recent post, I mentioned a great instructional video on creating corrugated paper, that was listed on Origami Tessellations.

Eric Gjerde, who runs Origami Tessellations, left me a comment on the post! Here's what he says:

"I'm glad you liked my little site- thanks for the mention! Although I have to say that Paul Jackson is the one responsible for the nice corrugated paper instructions, I just reposted it :)keep up the good work, and keep creating!"

Thanks Eric! And you are quite right; I didn't link to Paul Jackson, who made the video. So here it is:

Paul Jackson, origami artist. His gallery is definitely worth looking at; he puts my origami to shame. My favorite is the rhino. Although the organic abstracts comes in second! :)

And here's a lily to Eric for pointing it out, and being so encouraging! Thanks Eric!
