Hello origami enthusiasts and ASMR lovers,

I cannot wait for summer to get here! Vacation has been on my mind lately, even though it’s technically still spring. Thinking about traveling made me think of airplanes and airport adventures, which inspired me to fold a realistic origami airplane for this ASMR video.

This airplane model was originally designed by Jo Nakashima and is intermediate level. It’s not the simplest airplane fold, but it’s also not overly complicated, making it a great project if you already have some origami experience and want something relaxing to work on. The folding process is also satisfying and calming to watch for anyone who enjoys ASMR origami videos.

Folding paper airplanes also brings back childhood memories. I remember when friends and I would have little contests to see whose airplane could fly the farthest or which design looked the coolest. It was always exciting to launch them and watch whose plane glided the longest. If only I knew then what I know now!

Unlike those childhood airplanes though, this origami airplane doesn’t actually fly. It’s more of a realistic display model, though you do get to see me “fly” it at the end of the video. The model captures the fun and creativity of folding airplanes while highlighting the calming sounds of paper folding, with a few extra ASMR touches toward the end for a fully relaxing experience.

If you enjoy origami or relaxing ASMR content, watch the video below. I hope it brings you a peaceful moment.

Hello art lovers, origami enthusiasts, ASMR fans, and everyone in between!

This week’s origami creation is a playful one, the Origami Talking Fish. If you’ve never seen this model before, it’s a classic origami design that opens and closes like a little puppet. When you press the folds together, the fish “talks,” which makes it surprisingly expressive for such a simple piece of paper.

For this ASMR video, I focused on the gentle sounds of folding and shaping paper, along with those nice sharp crease sounds made by my wooden folding knife. The crisp creases and rhythmic movements create a relaxing paper folding experience that I always find calming, both visually and audibly. Origami has a way of slowing things down and bringing your attention to the small details, the angle of a fold, the texture of the paper, and the quiet repetition of each step.

I’ll admit I did have a little fun toward the end… let’s just say one of the fish gets a little too hungry. I couldn’t help myself. I mean, they’re basically finger puppets, you have to have a little fun with finger puppets. It also gave me the opportunity to add some playful mukbang style crunchy sound effects that I think you’ll enjoy.

If you enjoy origami ASMR, relaxing paper folding sounds, and playful paper art, I hope this little talking fish brings a smile to your day.

Watch the full video below and follow along as I continue exploring the relaxing and creative world of origami!
