You're welcome!!
I saw a lot of people folding origami horses, so I decided to give that a whirl for the heck of it. I haven't folded origami in years, but I was pretty good at it when I was younger.
Shoutout to my guy Jeremy Shafer (whose videos I used to follow often) for the video tutorial, check it out here!
No size requirement! Tiny is fine as long as it's not microscopic.

intangible.
Finally got around to completing my craft, I kept changing what I wanted it to be lol. It's a little hanging decoration, with various auspicious Chinese characters around it. I chose six that I thought are values and things I would like to have and keep in the new year: fu (good luck), ai (love), he (harmony), de (virtue), xi (joy), and ji (propitious). Bonus inclusion of a watercolour from one scene in Kung Fu Panda, which I watched the other day in honour of the LNY!
So this is my entry! Working with metal wire was a lot more complicated than I thought it would be
My original design was trying to do something kinda cloisonne-like but couldn't get the wire bits small enough to make a decent pattern where I could fill in the gaps. I've done a horse bust instead with a little lantern dangling from the bottom! I tried hanging it but my camera had a hard time focusing on the metal. Maybe next time I should try working with something easier to handle
