Everyone makes wishes.
We wish upon stars, we wish on our birthday cakes and even sometimes just because we're having a bad day.
I need all of your help to make my final major project authentic and meaningful.
What I need for this to happen are your wishes.
I am working with origami cranes, and using a slip casting method. Each wish I receive will be written on a piece of paper, folded into a crane and turned into a porcelain version.
An ancient Japanese legend promises that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane.
I understand if you prefer to be anonymous, so please comment anonymously and leave as many wishes as you like.
And you never know, your wish just might come true!
Thank you so much for you contributions.
