4. Origami Paper Set: Consider getting him a set of high-quality origami papers in various colors, patterns, and sizes. These papers are specifically designed for origami and often result in better quality folds and finished models. Some sets even include metallic or textured papers, allowing for more creative possibilities.

5. Origami Tools: Surprise him with a set of specialized origami tools that can make his folding experience easier and more enjoyable. This could include tools such as bone folders, scoring tools, precision cutting knives, or origami rulers. These tools can enhance precision and add a professional touch to his creations.

6. Origami Display Stand or Frame: Transform his origami creations into unique art pieces by gifting him a display stand or frame specifically designed for showcasing origami. With these displays, his creations can be beautifully exhibited in his room or any other area of the house, providing him with a sense of pride and accomplishment.

7. Origami-inspired Jewelry: Consider getting him origami-inspired jewelry, such as necklaces or earrings shaped like his favorite origami models. These pieces can be an artistic and stylish way for him to express his love for origami even when he's not folding paper.

Remember, the best gift is one that shows you understand and support his interests. By choosing a gift that celebrates his passion for origami, you'll not only make him happy but also encourage his creative growth.
