Decorate your cubical with aquatic beauties! When work or weather keeps you away from your favorite fishing hole, why not make your favorite fish from paper? Japanese paper fish dolls in pdf format. Secondary page here.

Try to use color paper, paper of stone pattern or wood grain pattern and so on besides white paper if you want to taste different atmosphere.

Jeez. Even Newfoundlanders aren't that desperate for fish.

What's up with the Dolly Varden reference on the third fish down?

Dolly varden is the name of the fish from which the band took their name.

Wow, thanks iconomy -- I always assumed it was just a play on Dolly Pardon, not a double-play.

See... a co-worker and I decorated another co-worker's cube with origami fish, shrimp and crabs the other day - even used bubblewrap to simulate water and styrofoam peanuts for gravel. I always knew we were ahead of our time....

Co-workers, however, rarely appreciate it when you take liberties with their desks.

It's cubicle. There is no "A" in cubicle. I can't believe I encounter this so often. Otherwise, great post :)
