Paper swans

I saw this idea on the internet one night. It's known as "Golden Venture Folding" where you construct many little triangular pieces of paper and assemble them into many different kinds of structures. At first I did not have any tool that would adequately cut paper into the right sized rectangles. So I folded and ripped each and every rectangle, nearly 500 of them. 

I gave my first one away as a thank you to a friend.

When my mom saw a picture of them I sent her. She commissioned a few smaller ones.
