Book beads

After the Origami workshop the other week I've been thinking about how to use the techniques in my own work.  I am interested in the current trend for book sculpture and bookbinding and paper art in general really, and what better way to recycle old papers?  I'm thinking of using photographs to make memory books, journals and sculptures next year - along with all the other ideas that are whizzing around my head....
With this in mind I have been working on a couple of 'beads'.  I was unable to find any tutorials for these online so I've had to study pictures and then think about it for a long time.  My mind doesn't do mathematical process thinking!
Here's the results.
