Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

To begin with, these are not exactly "origami" origami paper. They are not thin like the japanese origami paper. That being said, I have to say these are superb. About three shades per color (gray black - and white is easy to produce; pink violet purple; red orange darker orange; lime green dark green; 3 shades of blue; orange yellow light yellow) I have to say, this is perfect for making kusudama, which I am mainly interested in. Most kusudama calls from 30 to 60 pieces, and there are 25 sheets per color so it should be easy to make about 10 kusudamas. The papers being thick help me in this regard, as you want a thicker paper to do this. If you are doing kusudama and want a smaller sized paper, this may not be the best, since they are quite large. If you are going for bigger ones (as I am) I highly recommend it. For beginner origami, the colors are great. They are the same color on both sides so you might get confused with some models if you are a beginner, but other than that they are perfect. But this paper definitely is not for the hardest models (not big enough for something like Satoshi Kamiya's dragons) but still I think you will get beautiful moderately-complex models if that is what you are going for. I suggest you get a cutting station if you think you will be using different size of papers, there are pretty good ones on amazon.
