The 1000 Cranes for Japan Project


I saw this very touching project devised by Blythe collectors to show support for Japan and those affected by the recent earthquake and tsunami. Its goal is for doll collectors to combine their efforts to make one thousand paper cranes as according to Japanese legend this will make a wish come true. Strings of a thousand are left to the elements so that the wish will be released organically. It is a beautiful sentiment and this joint effort will hopefully show Japanese collectors that they are wished well.

I realise that to some it might seem very futile and perhaps even pointless but I think it is a great way to show support especially if you are lacking the funds to make a donation to the relief effort.
