You take a sheet out of the pack and work through the instructions step by step. At the end you have a pigeon that stands on its own. Because all 50 sheets work the same way, the moves come easily after the first few birds and the rest of the flock almost builds itself.

Displayed together the pigeons look best as a group: a few on the desk, some on the bookshelf, one straggler on top of the monitor. How large your flock grows is up to you, since 50 sheets are enough for a whole colony or for several small groups in different rooms.

The set fits city dwellers, bird lovers and anyone with a taste for odd humour, as well as origami and craft fans who enjoy folding something new. As a small gift or a little something to bring along it works for birthdays and Christmas, and at an office Secret Santa it is the kind of present everyone talks about the next morning.

Because the pack measures 14 x 21 cm and is only 0.3 cm thick, it wraps flat and travels without any fuss.

Fold on a hard, smooth surface and run your nail along each edge, so the creases stay crisp. With three patterns in the set it pays to mix the sheets, so no two neighbours in the flock look alike.

You do not have to fold all 50 pigeons in one sitting. Put some of the sheets back in the pack and add to the flock whenever you feel like it. You can also split the set as a gift: a handful of sheets plus one finished pigeon as a sample makes the idea clear straight away. And if you combine several origami sets, your shelf ends up with mixed company.

How many pigeons can I fold? The set contains 50 printed sheets, so it is enough for 50 pigeons in three different patterns.

Do I need origami experience? No, the set comes with simple instructions that you follow step by step.

How big is the pack? It measures 14 x 21 x 0.3 cm, so it is as flat as an A5 notebook.

Where can I display the folded pigeons? On your desk or on a bookshelf, for example, where the flock works best as a group.

Does it make a good gift? Yes, it works as a small gift or token for birthdays, Christmas and an office Secret Santa.
