This looks really cool, but no offense, this isn't real origami. Origami uses nothing but paper and folds. Nonetheless, it's a cool project. I just wish you didn't call it origami.

I love this flowers. I've made a lot of them!

I found this online some years ago and did it with my 3rd grade pupils to be put on the ceiling of our classroom, you can see them (very little) in the photo of the classroom, near the cats' shadows:

I've used a long green string so I can use it to hang the flower.

And then I did another more or less 200 to complete the ceiling of two classrooms:
