Good luck!

It's 8.8.08, an incredibly fortuitous day in Chinese numerology, the start of the Olympics in Beijing and surely a day where many weddings will be taking place all over the world.  I thought it a good idea to spread that good fortune around to this blog a little by featuring a traditional symbol of luck: origami!  Origami actually started in China as Chinese paper folding and was later introduced to Japan where it became what we know as origami today.  The origami I'm talking about though is not the precious paper trinket kind (although I love those...)  This origami is strong enough to last through the ages, chic enough to wear everyday yet just as precious (and hopefully as lucky!) as its paper predecessor: Origami Bijou.

Origami Bijou features jewelry that's made using the traditional paper folding technique, but instead uses sheets of fine silver and 24K gold.  The results are stylish and delicate, sure to start some conversations, and will last for many years to come!  Head over to Origami Bijou to check out all the amazing designs, and find your perfect good luck charm.  Happy 8.8.08!
