Artful Monday at Orion Twp Library--October 12 / Paper Crafting Series #2 / Origami

I'm excited to present the 2nd paper crafting class at the Orion Township Library, Monday, October 12 at 7--8:30 p.m. We are continuing our Paper Crafting Series with Origami folding.  Please register at the Orion Library website:  http://orionlibrary.org or call the library at 248.693.3000.  See photos below of what we'll be making. Projects: 1) folded circle flower 2) pop-up box for secret message
3) interlocking gift box

We had fun at the first iris folding class with a serious group of crafters in attendance. Feel free to bring your favorite decorative, scrapbook or origami weight papers if you'd like to create something special. We will have various colors of copy paper available to play with. 8" X 8" squares will work well. No fee for the class. Hope to see familiar faces at this event!

Accordion Folded Flag Book at Auburn Hills Library, Tues., October 6 at 6:30 pm

Hello Crafters,

If you missed the 1st class of making accordion books, you can still attend Part 2, tomorrow night, Oct. 6 at 6:30 pm.

Plan to join us tomorrow night at the Auburn Hills Library for part 2 where we will be making Flag Books. These are FUN to make! You can attach photos, mementos, stamps, stickers, dried flowers or quotes & give as gifts to a special someone! Once you learn how easy they are to make, you can make them in any size you choose.

Please bring your general crafting supplies: bone folder, pencil, scissors, ruler, paper trimmer & preferred glue stick. Please bring a couple sheets of decorative papers for your covers. This can be wrapping paper or 12 X 12 scrapbook paper (text weight).  The book boards will be supplied for the covers.  I also have extra paper trimmers.  I will be showing you how to use a scoring board, which makes the folding & scoring so much easier! A very handy tool!

I've attached photos of the Flag Books I've made.

Will I see you tomorrow night? There's plenty of room for other attendees if you know of a friend who would like to attend. Please let me know if you DO want to attend, so I will know how many supplies I need to make available. There is no fee for the class.
