The Chinese invented paper more than 2,000 years ago. As far as we know, however, it was the Japanese who first made paper into art. Origami, which is a Japanese word meaning “folding paper,” is the art of folding paper into beautiful forms.Papermaking came to Japan around the year 610. Legend says that a Chinese Buddhist monk1 named Don-cho shared this knowledge when he visited Japan’s Imperial Palace.2 Sometime later — no one knows just when — the ancient Japanese began folding paper.Papermakers used the bark of mulberry trees to make paper; the materials were costly, and the process took time. Because of the way it was made, paper was expensive. So, at first, only the wealthy made origami.Well-to-do people3 made origami as part of ceremonies, such as weddings. At noblemen’s4 weddings, for example, origami butterflies adorned5 the drinking glasses. They represented the bride and groom. Samurai warriors often gave each other gifts decorated with folded paper designs. The designs were good luck symbols. Some people made elegant6 paper wrappings for their gifts, too. Even today, gifts in Japan often come with origami decorations.[5]Over time, paper became more common. Folded paper boxes held herbs and other household goods. Origami containers also held flowers and other gifts. Women probably taught the art of paper folding to their daughters.Eventually­, people began folding paper for fun. Two of the oldest origami books date back to 1797. One shows how to make paper cranes. Another has instructions for origami dolls. Today people around the world enjoy origami. Birds, flowers, and other shapes from nature are very popular.
