Ok, not sure if I mentioned this in a previous post or not, but I started doing this with one type of paper, which was way too big and I wouldn’t be able to keep them anywhere. So i found a shop in a town not too far away that sells small origami squares, about 5cm wide, and bought some packs. When i got it home I found that each pack only had 70 squares in it, and got to about 280 cranes before I had to get some more. But unfortunately they ran out twice (with me buying all their stock) and I was still only up to 910 cranes. Well, they rang me about a week ago and told me they were back in stock. So… hopefully I will be finished this goal by the end of next week. 913 down, 87 to go.
