An origami vending machine where you can get origami models for free? It's in Saint-Maur des Fossés in the suburbs of Paris, France!

A Japanese lady recently installed an automated vending machine with traditional origami models in the city of Uchiko, Japan. The origami are sold for very small prices (less than a dollar for each model).

I thought the idea was excellent, so I decided to do the same thing, in my street, giving free origamis to all the persons who will walk by and find my origami foldings beautiful.

Like many origamists, I do a lot of paper folding, and many of my origami foldings end up stacked in a carboard box, and even in more and more boxes! So I have a lot of origamis to give away. If my colorful origamis can bring joy to children and grownups in the neighbourhood, they will be much more useful than in my boxes. :-)
