durable paperMar 16, 2010 This paper is easy to fold yet has a shiny plastic like coating on it. The metallic colors are fun and the box works well to store the paper. Our only problem is that the paper was popular with our son and we ran out pretty quickly.

Great inexpensive pack of origami paper.Jan 09, 2010 My 11 year old son loves origami, and I had a very hard time finding origami paper for him for Christmas. This was a nice set, perfect size and a variety of colors. He was very happy with it.

Great origami fun in a small packageMar 19, 2009 There are 51 sheets of quality paper in this kit--many bright colors, including gold and silver. They are smoothly colored on one side only (white on the other) to better appreciate the origami process, particularly if you are a beginner. There is an insert with six projects carefully outlined, starting with two easy ones.
I've tried other Origami sets with my grandchildren and failed miserably, so I was pleased to have some success with this one. I can always count on Melissa and Doug products. The sheets aren't too large for little hands to create some easy projects too, so we all had fun. After trying the projects on the included leaflet, we moved on to another book that had great instruction, but no paper. I'm glad I purchased both products together. Recommended together for beginners.

Great for kids - not so much for adults.Jan 15, 2009 First off, the basics, which seem to be lacking in the product description: 51 sheets, 17 colors, including primary colors, fluorescents, and metallics.
This paper is probably a good choice for kids or origami beginners. The paper is thick, glossy, and bright, making it easy to fold and fairly vivid for designs. It's hard to get delicate with small folds, though, because of the thickness, and the one-color sheets (which are white on the back) aren't particularly interesting for use in designs, once you've made a few.
The enclosed booklet is pretty basic, and includes five designs: airplane, swan, fortune cookie (looks like classic "fortune teller"), wishing star, and inflatable cube. Again, good for absolute beginners, but it's not a set of paper that I'd buy more than once.

Confusing Product DescriptionJan 01, 2009 Melissa & Doug Origami Paper (6"x6")Melissa & Doug Origami Paper (6"x6")Two fine descriptions for the same product? On sale at 2 cents difference. Neither say how many sheets of paper, but one offers an 8 oz package of paper, with a shipping weight of 6.6 oz, the other a 1 pound package, with a shipping weight of 15 pounds. There is some serious shipping magic going on in both cases. One is classed as paper, the other as paint. Perhaps the Holiday rush got to the writing staff.
I would like to know how many pieces of paper of what size and what weight. Seems simple, right? It is, after all, just paper.
Or is it????
