The host teaches 7 different creations in detail on each DVD. A LOT better than some of the books out there on towel origami. He also gives some helpful tips on what types of towels to use and how to make them extra special. There is also a free video on the site that teaches you one of the creations. No form the fill out to see this video. Sharon I bought two DVDs on towel origami last month at http://www.FoldingMagic.com and loved them.

I'm going to look for the Carnival book at our library. I doubt it's there but I can always request it. I just love these little animals! How neat would it be to leave one of these for the little ones to discover as they get out of the tub?? Thanks Ben! Love it!

The monkey, for instance, requires multiple towels. Still, very nicely done. I think it is a good thing to know how to take mundane objects and transform them into something fun and interesting or useful. This is part of the fascination of origami. It's somehow very rewarding to take a few random objects and make them into a diverting juggling act, or turn a bit of rope into useful or even life-saving tools with appropriate knots. Recently, the Japanese Ministry of the Environment published a guide on how to fold Furoshiki (http://www.hiratadigital.com/ministryenvironment.html), turning a square of cloth into a wide variety of wrappers or carriers. Being able to do these things keeps the mind active, and encourages a stance of MacGuyver-like resourcefulness. In addition, you will never be bored if you can make useful things out of ordinary objects. Actually, some of these are made from two or three towels.
