Hello, DIYers!

Today we are talking origami! This is the Japanese art of folding paper! It can be simple or complicated, depending on how ambitious you’d like to be. It can be a relaxing DIY activity for adults or an engaging project for kids as they learn critical thinking skills. You can let the paper crafts stand alone or use them to decorate DIY cards, make lovely displays on walls, wrap them with garland and lights, or even make lamp shades with them! The possibilities are only limited by your own creativity!

Happy crafting everyone!
