Paper Fortune Teller

Although it may not be a traditional figure like the tsuru (crane), the paper fortune teller we use to make as kids is technically origami (“folded paper”). So, apologies to everyone I ever told that it wasn’t (most recently my friend, Angela). Apparently it appeared in the book Fun with Paper Folding by Murray and Rigney, published in 1928.

  1. Those were the days.. missed it very much.. My classmates and I used to play this game whenever we have nothing to do.. Inside the colour codes and numerical numbers each has some either positive encouragement or negative ones.. I wonder if children these days still play this..
    It’s like over 10 years ago since I’ve played it.. hahah.. Thanks for sharing. Cheers~
