Origami



I learned how to do these from the origami club, the dog (chiuaua?) took longer than the flower (chrysanthium flower), I learned the flower from someone, didn't get her name, but she seems passionate about flowers, not so much with animals :D

yellow Chrysanthemum (looks like a sunflower but the pollen in the middle is smaller), often called 'mums'

In some countries of Europe (e.g., France, Poland, Croatia), in Korea and in Japan, white chrysanthemums are symbolic of death and are only used for funerals or on graves - similarly, in China, white chrysanthemums are symbolic of lamentation and/or grief. In some other countries, it represents honesty.[2] In the United States, the flower is usually regarded as positive and cheerful.

Origami & Sadako Sasaki

I shall write peace upon your wings, your heart and you shall fly around the world so that children will no longer have to die this way.

Found out about her from the Origami Club. Touching story. Worth the read.
