Information

THE ONE THOUSAND PEACE CRANE GOAL HAS BEEN REACHED AS OF 1/6/12. (PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANY MORE PEACE CRANES.)

Thank you to everyone who made peace cranes!

There's a story told in Japan that if you make a thousand origami Peace Cranes, you or someone you love will be healed. This group is for those who wish to make an origami Peace Crane which will then be sent to the Hiroshima Peace Museum.

Comment by Pen-Thief on May 7, 2011 at 5:08am: The Starburst cranes were my creation! I am so glad they made it. I wanted to stuff the envie full of them, but I was also extremely eager to get them in the mail. So I only sent one for each year I have been alive. (25)

Comment by Louise Kiner on May 7, 2011 at 1:50am: Those are really cool!

Comment by liketelevisionsnow on May 7, 2011 at 1:47am: Received this amazing see-through envelope today that contained peace cranes made from Starburst wrappers. The sender's name and address is too faint to read, so if the person who sent it sees this, please let me know who you are!

Comment by liketelevisionsnow on May 6, 2011 at 5:36pm: Received from Martina Zuliani of Italy this beautiful peace crane along with a heartfelt note for the people of Japan!

Comment by liketelevisionsnow on May 6, 2011 at 12:39pm: Hi everyone - In addition to all of the amazing collages that people have sent, about 200 peace cranes have been received as of today! It's been an incredible variety of colors and textured papers that have been used - everyone has done a fantastic job!

I will post updates frequently along with photos here on the group board. Thanks again!
