About Me and the Project:
Michael Stone, Origami Artist
A Thousand Origami Cranes
A thousand origami cranes
grants the maker one wish,
one wish to be granted
on paper wings,
folded and tucked with care.
Eternal good luck is granted,
say others.
A legend born, and borne
by the wings of a bird.

I have enjoyed folding different Origami models for many years, but always come back to my favorite design, the crane, a symbol of peace and hope.
The Chains of Cranes Project began after helping a friend get out of a difficult living situation and discovering that many friends and colleagues had experiences supporting their friends and relatives who had been in domestic violent relationships. Folding peace cranes offered me a chance to be in the moment, spending time in peace, mindful of how fortunate I have been in my own personal relationships.
I believe that everyone should be surrounded by love and kindness and feel safe at home.
My “for-profit” project, by donating a portion of proceeds to Caring Unlimited, hopes to support their important work.
I hope your purchase of a Chain of Cranes provides you or your loved ones with a sense of peace and hope.
