This origami (or kirigami) dove is easy to fold, but needs a
few simple cuts with a pair of scissors. It makes a very pretty decoration for a
table or mantelpiece, looks lovely in a mobile, or hanging on a Christmas tree.
We have made ours using a semi-transparent handmade paper. We also decorated our
Christmas tree last year with white doves made from handmade paper and
embellished with a scattering of glitter on the wings! Of course a dove is also
a symbol of peace and is appropriate for Martin Luther King day, too.
