Celebrate World Origami Day with Crosley the Crocodile!

Did you know November 11th is World Origami Day?

While it’s also Veterans Day in the United States, this day honors the art of paper folding worldwide. Origami began in ancient Japan but has roots in other cultures too. One of the most iconic origami creations, the crane, symbolizes peace and commemorates the end of WWI on November 11, 1918. To learn how to make the traditional origami crane you can watch this short youtube video.

To celebrate, let’s make an origami Crosley! All you’ll need is red, square paper—the perfect color for our pineapple cheesecake-loving croc. Download these visual instructions [here] or follow along with a video tutorial.
