I have been a money origami enthusiast for years. I give away most of my efforts as tips at restaurants, which makes me very popular at my regular haunts in my small town. I have gleaned as many of the free models as I can from the internet and I needed some fresh material and this kit provides it!The $3 bird base is worth the price alone because anything you can make with a standard square paper bird base can now be made out of three dollars so my 50 or so dollar models I already knew had grown considerably. The DVD provided was invaluable in helping me finish each model, and the practice dollars make it easier to practice and achieve perfection. I don't want to gloss over the fact that there are 9 other models here that are all worthy of praise for their beauty and uniqueness. I'm still learning to make each one and have enjoyed the process and results. Thank you Michael LaFosse!
