Daily Shoot: Paper is versatile and malleable. From napkins to origami, it's all around. Make a photo of something made of paper.

I bought these earrings about 8 years ago. I met the person who was responsible for a web site on hypergami. With this program you could design the paper and then print it with instructions on where to cut and fold to create creatures and other shapes. From the site "a software environment for designing paper models using polyhedra and user-created variants of polyhedra." I admit - I bought the earrings; I did not make them. But I do enjoy wearing them. They are lightweight (after all they are paper) and fun.
