I never knew origami could look so pretty for the everyday home. A simple step-by-step guide for creating your own pastel heaven at home. Think powder pink lampshades and frames in sorbet tones, all from paper. A must read to fuel your creativity and home decor. -- Geraldine Tan * LittleBigBell.com *
The photography and styling within this book is beautifully fresh and contemporary. Nellianna and Kenneth demonstrate the many ways in which origami can be put to practical and decorative use in your home. I imagine hours or entertainment, creativity and fun will be gained from owning this book -- Caroline Rowland
These projects are absolutely beautiful, lovingly photographed, and explained in minute detail to give readers the best possible chance at success. With tool listings, measurements, templates, and more at your disposal, you’ll be adding decorative paper touches to your home in no time. * San Francisco Book Review *
