You are able to see exactly where to move the paper as Karen describes what she is doing. I love using the DVD in the computer so I can use the pause button as many times as I want while working on a certain fold before going on to the next fold; this was especially helpful when I made the "Folded Box."

If you think origami is only about making paper cranes, think again. In this DVD Karen shows you how to fold beautiful papers into envelopes, boxes, gift bags, earrings, and books. ... If you have ever tried origami and found yourself tangled up in all the diagrams and references to "valley folds" and "mountain folds" I think you'll find the DVD to be less tricky to understand.
