Product Description
It's clever, it's creative, and most of all, it's fun: super origami made with those stick-it desk notes found on every desk. These projects make work just a little more entertaining.
Everyone has them in the office and even at home: ordinary pads of sticky notes in a range of colors and sizes. With the help of innovative origami expert David Mitchell, they can quickly become attractive paper sculptures. All it takes is a few minutes to finish off something beautiful during an interminable phone call or while waiting for a meeting to begin. Each of the 20 projects-including 3-D animals, posies to put on a message, and geometric designs-feature detailed diagrams and a color photo of the completed piece. And every item was especially created to take advantage of the paper's sticky end. It's the sure-fire antidote to those boring moments on the job.

 A great disappointment August 24, 2006

The book contains 25 designs. Many of these are pointless tile patterns. Most figures are standard designs - you join 2 post-its to make your starting square paper. A number of designs would require an explanation for a viewer to recognise what they are suppposed to be. When I ordered the book I expected I would end up with lovely little figures across my desk cleverly folded from post-its - there wasn't one figure I would display. Don't bother with this book - there are plenty better - even free stuff off the web is higher standard.
 I DISAGREE WITH THE LAST REVIEW December 24, 2006

I thought the book was delightful. The directions for each design are extremely clear, which is NOT always the case with origami books. One great design is a sticky note take on a flexagon, which works very well since the paper comes with its own stickiness -- no transparent tape required. The models are relatively easy (till the last few), so this would be a good book for an origami novice. An experienced folder might want to take a look at a copy before purchasing.
great book March 29, 2007

 Not the best book for the office November 4, 2007

Sticky Note origami contains a lot of models that you would have already seen in many basic origami books. Many of the models do not actually have to be folded with sticky notes.
If you want a book for some quick cleaver folds for the office, I suggest Office Origami: The Highly Successful Slacker's Guide to Workplace Procrastination. Its another basic book, but I'd rate it higher than this one.
With that said, this book is not a complete write off, the Wizard shown on the front cover is quite cool. I guess its not too bad for the price, and maybe beginner folders would like it.
