Hey Everyone! I just realized that I haven’t shared a “behind-the-scenes” post in almost 2 months! So I thought I would give you a sneak peek of one of my latest designs: Post-it(R) Note Origami Darth Vader Bookmark! I spent several days designing it, and originally, it was meant to be folded from regular origami paper, but since…
These origami boxes are perfect for candies, office supplies (i.e. paper clips, rubber bands), and all sorts of little knick-nacks. 🙂 Plus, they sort of look like monster teeth (or a weird venus fly trap) — wouldn’t that be great for Halloween? 😀 If you create these from a 6″ square, it’ll fit small Post-it(R)…

I’ve been fiddling around with this origami camel for a few days now. It was initially meant to be a horse, but I figured – hey, there are a gazillion horse models out there – why not make it into a less appreciated animal: CAMEL? It even has a saddle.

In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to make a DIY Mod Podge Flower Coaster using origami paper, mod podge (gloss & dimensional magic) and a wooden coaster. This easy coaster craft is a great way to recycle old coasters that you may have lying around (I used an old seasonal coaster), and give that…
