Happy Star Wars Day, all you Jedi Masters and Sith Lords out there.
I must confess, much like last year the day sneaked up on me again. But that doesn’t mean I’m leaving you empty-handed. Thanks to the wonder that is the interwebs, I give you Origami Yoda, the newest member of my writing cheerleading squad with his well-known maxim:
If you want to take a shot at folding one yourself, here’s a video, but be warned, it will confound you and try you and leave you bleeding from a thousand-and-one paper cuts.
In honour of Star Trek and Star Wars fans bashing on each other (personally I stay out of that fight – like Harry Dresden’s apprentice, Molly, I believe it’s okay to like both), here’s a video on how Star Trek (the reboot) should have ended. The really good bit is at two minutes, thirty seconds.
Enjoy your Star Wars Day, whichever side of the force you serve.
And live long and prosper 😛
if all else fails...use a hammer 
Love the Yoda. I don’t think I’ll try making one though. I have enough in my life to frustrate me.

I wouldn’t have been able to without the video, and even then it took me two tries. I’ve done a few origami projects (for our first anniversary (paper) I made my wife an origami gerbera (her favourite flower)), but this is by far the most advanced one I’ve ever done.

I haven’t watched those yet. I love the one they did on Frozen. It perfectly agreed with my opinion of the movie.

I have always wanted to do origami so I bought a kit. The first project had me so frustrated that I didn’t bother trying another one. Yes, I am a quitter!

No, don’t say that. Sure, it’s frustrating, but it feels so good when you finally nail it. My tip: Youtube. Watching a video is so much easier than deciphering those folding diagrams. And start with something simple. If you’re easily discouraged the force is clearly not yet strong enough in you to attempt Yoda 😉

Very complex, that Yoda origami is!

To complete it, centered in the force, one must be, and turn not to the dark side when vexes you it does.

For sure! I only discovered him two years ago, so I’m still playing catch-up. I just finished White Night and Small Favor is lying on my shelf waiting for its turn.

I just finished Turn Coat. I think that’s book 11. I am seriously crazy about Harry and friends.
