I know what you mean - sun hats are really nice looking, especially in a rainbow color it would be great supplementation to any style, irrespective of whether you are a man or a woman. Unfortunately, to make one with my current skills is impossible, so I will either have to buy a Sun Origami Hat, or simply try and make the simplest hat design, that I can find. I will probably go for the latter for now (and I even think this will be a huge challenge for me). My skills are really bad, I'm a total beginner and I hae basically just switched from doing origami designed for kids, that basically anyone can make, so yeah, this is definitely a challenge for me, but then again, buying premade origami hats is not exactly the same as making one yourself and I believe this is the whole point of this, so I shouldn't really on using somebody's else work and challenge myself a little bit. So, I can't promise when I will wear one, but as soon as I pull through and make a nice hat, I promise to try it out. Cheers!

Well, suprisingly the hardest origami for me to complete so far was... an Albatros. No, I didn't make a spelling mistake in my name, I wanted it to be Albatros"e". But yeah, this one was pretty hard, sure, for your it's probably pretty easy, but I'm a beginner and only had a couple of projects completed so far. Another one that forced me to focus a lot was Traditional Rabbit - it was actually more intermediate than a beginner level, but I'm glad that I have eventually got it done. As for the others - well, I still didn't do much and I was starting right from the very easiest ones, so I guess nothing more to mention here, for now.. :P

Catapult made a good point, although I'm not sure if forcing yourself to train, even if you like the chosen sport or activity (origami). I'm still much more into taking in more lightly - so far has worked for me in anything else, just do something when you feel like doing it, and don't do it if you do not. It's that simple. If you really like origami, then you will never quit again and you will totally get into it and the mere training and practicing won't even be that hard as some make it to be. It all depends on how much you like in order to be really good. If you hate doing something, then sorry, but you will most likely never be really good at this. Oh, and I'm a beginner as well, much less experienced in origami than you, so you can take my words with a grain of salt, although my approached has worked with everything else from games to private life adn relationships.

Nice to have you here as well!

Thanks for kind words. Hah, I would never say that I'm talented or particularly good with my hands, although I doubt that I'm as bad as you once were (no offense). I did a fair share if typical 'white-collar' jobs, always helping my father and very often my mom too as they were unfortunately divorced, and both of them are kind of lonely wolfs, so they only had me to rely on eventually. Anyway, not sure when I will have enough time to share some of my work, but hopefully this week or another I will be able to create something and I will make sure to post some photos here and give my feedback again. As for the Swan, I have already thrown it away - it was far from perfect, so... But I will make another one and hopefully this one will be much better. As long as I said it's easy, I didn't mean, that I have created a really nice looking bird. I was just surprised that I was able to create anything that actually resembles a bird, so... But, I'm sure this time I can make an even better one (or at least, so I hope :P) We will see, hate making false promises.

Okay, I had a free evening today, so just after coming back from work I started doing a Swan accordingly with your instructions. Gotta say, it was much easier than I have anticipated. Of course haven't been able to create it totally without videos or photos as I have helped myself with the video, that I have used to build my Swan, but it was pretty easy nonetheless. Good job Leonard, I will make sure to do all other 4 and follow your instructions. As the Chick looks pretty easy, I may actually try to create it without following any kind of youtube videos or photos :P The flower also looks quit easy, so I may give it a try as well. Once I do them, I will make sure to respond here again and hopefully... show some great results again :)

Pretty nice tuts, good job. I am a beginner to origami as well, hopefully I will learn very quickly - haven't had time to try to build anything from your tutorials, but I have already created a swan from the youtube videos, so I will be glad to try and repeat it based on your tutorials and see if I can make it as good as from the video - if not, then well, I still have tons to learn probably :P Anyway, I will make sure to give you feedback wheter I was or I wasn't able to create one just from your tutorial :)
