The Great Origami Giveaway

Please click here to find out who won!

We were so pleased with the response to our Great Chiyogami Giveaway last year that we decided to run one again this holiday season with a different breed of paper lover in mind.  Welcome to The Great Origami Giveaway!!

This year we have put together the ultimate Origami prize package, one of each of the origami packs we offer online – practically a lifetime supply!

First, simply leave a comment below. That will earn you 1 entry in the contest.

Want to increase your odds? Mention our contest in your blog, (feel free to use the Large or Small version of the pic above) and add a link to your post in your comment below. This will earn you 5 extra entries.

Another way to earn 5 extra entries is to add a link in your comment to a photo of any origami you have done. Please only post links to photos you have permission to use of work YOU have done.

In response to your questions about twitter, we have decided to award 1 additional entry per tweet!

And finally, for the Origami super fans out there, make a video, upload it to Youtube and provide a link in your comment below. Let us know why you should be the one to win – doing so earns you 50 extra entries.

The contest will run from November 15th – December 15th, 2009. The winner will be chosen at random and notified after the close of the contest.
