Origami

They're invarious sizes (probably) but the biggest origami is as big as a lunchbox. Not much are big, but you could go to origami stores like origami studio, origami usa origami etc.

First, I am going to assume you mean a human skull. There are many published skull diagrams, both in books and on the internet. Sometimes, paper that is white on one side and black on the other is used to get the effect of the interior of the skull, or the pits of the eye sockets, for example. There are also diagrams of other skulls, such as cattle skulls, for example. Find an origami diagram made using the standard conventions that is of the level of complexity appropriate to your skills and follow it. There are several diagrams available on the web ranging in complexity. Alternatively, find a video showing how to make one, like on YouTube.

If you are not already experienced in folding origami, you might need to make something pretty simple. If you don't mind drawing the eyes and nose on the paper, something a purist might not want to do, but if you are just having fun, what's the harm? Here is a video of a simple skull like that:

Only if you are a professional at using paper.

Origami origiated over 1000 years ago in Japan.

I myself do a lot of origami, not only is it a great way to pass time but it is really fun! I like to learn different types of origami and perfect it, I enjoy comparing what i started out with (a piece of paper) and then seeing the finished product.

There are several excellent websites that have instructions for folding an origami mew. Look at the link I have provided.

You can also purchase an origami kit. Look for Pokemon origami new kits online.

you can't. You can use a template ocarina out of paper, then glue/fold it all together, but not sure about origami :(

It is very difficult to try to determine the history of origami since not even the experts can agree on what or where it was. While most people think of Origami as being a strictly Japanese art form, many say it actually has it's roots in China going all the way back to the first or second century. Back in those early days paper was so rare and expensive that origami was a pastime reserved for the wealthy. Certain set shapes were fashioned from folded paper for special occasions like weddings, while serrated strips of white paper were used to adorn sacred objects in the shrines, a practice that continues to this day. There wasn't a lot of origami just as an art form at that time. In Japan from the early 1600's through the late 1800's, several forms of entertainment were developed for the common people; origami, now as an art form was one of those entertainments. The popularity of origami was due in part to its simplicity and the fact that there was no need for special tools. The popularity of origami continued to grow through about the middle of the 19th century then, except for ceremonial usage it's popularity started to decline during the modernization of Japan. It has been argued by some people that since paper was invented in China in105AD that logically paper folding must have followed shortly after. On the other hand, since there are no known records of Chinese paper folding and the oldest Japanese records only go back to the 18th century some still believe that the invention must have been Japanese. Buddhist monks brought paper with them to Japan in the late 6th century along with the art of paper folding. Although paper was very expensive it was still used quite extensively in Japan especially in its architecture with paper screens, doors etc. The Shinto religion incorporated the use of origami in its ceremonies and these shapes have remained unchanged for centuries. Although the experts can't agree on where origami originated, most of them agree that the Japanese are the ones who developed the traditional art form. This art form was passed down from generation to generation with nothing in writing. Due to all information being passed on orally, only the simplest designs were passed on. Around the year1797 the first written instructions appeared. The publication they were in was called the Senbazuru Orikata (Thousand Crane Folding). It was followed nearly 50 years later with an encyclopedia that contained a full collection of these figures. Modern origami has progressed to what it is today in great part due to a man named Yoshizawa Akira who in the early 1950's published books containing all new figures. In collaboration with San Randlett, an American, he developed the diagram symbols that are still used today. Today Yoshizawa is remembered as the grandmaster of origami and there are thousands of origami lovers worldwide. Thanks to the development of the diagram symbols it has been easier to record the instructions for the new shapes as they come along ensuring future generations of the information.

you can play with it, leave it somewhere for decorations, and more uses.

It's when you fold the paper in half down the center and when you stand the folded paper on a flat surface, it sticks up like a mountain!

A rabbit ear fold is a specific origami fold in which one corner of a square of paper is folding in half to produce a sharper point. Detailed instructions for folding a double or single rabbit ear can be found at: http://www.anyone-can-origami.com/basic-origami-2.html#basicform8

Yes. According to the Related Link: ; origami : 1956, from Japanese origami, from ori "fold" + kami"paper."

It means 'paper folding', from 'ori' - 'folding', and 'kami' - 'paper'. (kami becomes gami here, some words in Japanese change like this when formed into a compound word)
