Fujimoto’s Five Books are now Public Domain via Origami by Michał Kosmulski [Shared]

Yesterday, during an online event dedicated to Shuzo Fujimoto, I was happy to announce that his children, Hitoshi Fujimoto and Shumi Okada, being his heirs, have agreed to release his five self-published books to the Public Domain. This means that you can now copy, distribute, and use the contents of these books without any restrictions (certain limitations may still apply in some jurisdictions).

We made the books available in PDF format for anyone to download for free — visit each book’s page to find additional information and a link to the PDF:

The top right book has a gray cover with a geometric pattern and orange text. The bottom row consists of three books with yellow and light green covers, each displaying intricate geometric designs and diagrams related to origami. The left book is titled "トライメイプル (1)" (Try Maple (1)), the middle "布(リ)折り (12)" (Cloth Folding (12)), and the right "なにさり折り (3)" (Nanisari Folding (3)). Each book cover includes line drawings of origami models and patterns, indicating their focus on geometric and mathematical aspects of origami.

Months back, someone posted about completing a cross stitch project that they turned into a lighted decoration. It was 3-D, having 4 sides to it, and they placed an LED light in the middle so that it became a sort of lantern or lighted decoration. Can anyone point me to directions for such a thing? Or did anyone bookmark that post?

🍋 Ce citron n’est pas ce qu’il paraît…

Entièrement réalisé en verre soufflé, il mêle finesse, patience et passion.

Chaque détail a été façonné à la main, à haute température, jusqu’à lui donner vie. 🔥🫧

Quand la matière brute devient art…

Bienvenue dans les coulisses de la création d’un citron en verre sculpté à la main 💛✨️

Last year, Amazon wracked up $14.2 billion over a two-day period with their Prime Day sale. Amazon Prime "Day" 2025 will be a four-day event, no doubt still hoping to break their record of how much sweat-shop garbage they can peddle to an increasingly incredulous consumer base. Jeff Bezos, who recently spent an estimated $20 million on his lavish Venetian wedding, doesn't need your money. Resist temptation and scratch your shopping itch by giving a new home to a pre-loved book instead!

Firestorm Books is hosting a book swap on July 9th at our shop in Asheville, NC. 📚♻️

No limit on the number of books you can bring or take, just be considerate of what you bring (don't bring what you think is "trash") or take (don't take aaaaalll the good books)! You're welcome to hang out and read while you sip a complimentary mocktail.

And yes, you can still participate even if you don't have books to contribute!
