Its almost an action model... The toast and button can push down, but they aren't connected in any way.

I made this 4 heart coaster...
...by blintzing two corners to the front and the other two to the back then made that an octogon by making a frog base and hiding the corners away then did two twists on top of each other to hold the centre together and give me a pleat behind each heart that could be reverse folded (kinda) to make the cutaway at the tops of the hearts.
I wasn't happy with the back being two twists...
so I made another one with one octagonal twist on the back, which is much happier
I also made this - I call it Hand In Heart.
I couldn't take a picture that did it justice, so i decided to post (unfinished) diagrams for it so you can see for yourself... The collapse in step 15 isn't as hard to do as it is to diagram
enjoy

I decided to fold president Obama's symbol (at least during the election)
However... I don't know if this qualifies, because its two squares of paper...

No worries Cupcake... a certain amount of clever rule breaking is allowed... encouraged even.
PS: Great work so far, everyone! This is now the monthly challenge with the most participation in over a year
I sincerely hope that this level of participation keeps up in future challenges.

3 PM probably in Rome because of the Roman Numerals.
Time to quit work - but then I'm retired so my watch always shows that it is time to quit work

Very cool clock!
I really hope you plan to draw diagrams
Am I right to assume it's made from a blintz?

I will probably do a video showing how to fold each roman numeral. The Numerals on the left and right are folded from the corners of a blintz (you have a good eye !). The Top and bottom numerals are folded from pleats. So it goes something like this:
1. Fold a blintz
2. Fold the left and right numberals using sinks and squashes.
3. Unfold all
4. Fold the pleats (there are 4 in different directions)
5. Fold the numerals top and bottom with spread squashes (The V is tricky)
6. Refold the blintz overlapping the pleats with a bomb base from the overlapping paper on the top and bottom
7. Fold the tip of the bomb base to the back
8. Fold under a slender line of the center of the blintz to make the hands (you can make 3:00 or 9:00 or if not too fussy 3:30 or 9:30. If you realy want to twist the insides you might get other times).
Oh yea - Don't forget to press the whole thing between the pages of a book - it tends to open up.
I guess you better wait for the video ? ?

Egg designed by me - 20*20cm Double Unryu Paper(Thin), treaded with methyl cellulose.
Although I used two colors (yellow and white), white looks yellowish cause yellow paper penetrated its color through.
I created this model based on my avatar that I used in many forums ex: this forum:
It's an easy design, but I liked it very much

Here's my entry! I hope it's okay
LUXRAY
Made from two sheets of Kami folded together (since I don't have any black/blue paper).
This is only the second one I've folded, so I'll post better pics when I fold a better one. For those who don't know, Luxray is
a Pokemon.

Wow, great model, Sebastian!
The head needs a bit more volume to make the model even more impressive, but really nice model!
I designed a flying heron.
