Review on ๐ŸŒฟ Origami Paper 200 sheets Nature Patterns 6" (15 cm): Tuttle Origami Paper with 12 Unique Designs and 6 Project Instructions by Linda Diaz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Nice prints but don't underestimate how smelly it is.

Let's start with the positive, the prints on this paper are simply fantastic. The paper itself holds up well when folded and seems to hold the crease well without tearing. However, I greatly underestimated how much the paper will stink. I read several negative reviews before purchasing, all with the same complaint, but I honestly thought I'd brace myself for the average chemical smell you'd expect from any inked product. I was wrong. To be honest, I'm 18 weeks pregnant and still a bit sensitive to smells. But to counteract this, I even went so far as to open the packaging and let the paper air out overnight before use. Did not help. I could only do 2 or 3 easy origami projects at a time before I had to take a break - such an overwhelming smell! If you have a strong stomach or are used to strong chemical smells, this paper is great and will add a nice touch to your finished project. But if you're even mildly sensitive to smells, I strongly recommend avoiding this paper. To be honest, I couldn't concentrate while using it and will not buy this product again.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires an electrical outlet
