Comments: | Here is a sweet pair of rabbits -- a doe and her little kit. I have tried making many different styles of origami rabbit boxes, but this model is definitely the best one I've ever found. The body is very sturdy, while the ears, face, and nose are super cute. Over all, I think this model looks more like a real rabbit than most origami rabbit boxes. I have often seen bunnies in my back yard sitting with their legs and paws tucked up under their bodies -- and that's what this model resembles. Double-sided paper works best because the reverse side of the paper can be seen inside the box. More importantly, the reverse side of the paper is prominently displayed as the interior of the rabbit's ears. This model is called a Rabbit Lantern because it can be used for that purpose in addition to serving as a box. Just put a small battery-powered tea light in the body to create a delightful decoration for Easter or any joyous occasion. (Never use real candles due to fire hazard.) The legend of a rabbit or hare who lives on the moon is a popular part of local folklore throughout Asia. Westerners associate bunnies with spring, but the Moon Hare is associated with various mid-autumn festivals, including the Tsukimi moon-viewing festival in Japan. |
