Paper Egg

Project: Paper Egg. 

Materials: tons and tons of sheets of turquoise paper, scissors, hot glue

Process: folding tiny individual sheets of paper as little spikes or scales, gluing them layer by layer

This was incredibly time consuming. Very cool to look at but it took me a couple weeks of on and off work to perfect it.

Pixel Heart Necklace

I found the Pixel Heart Necklace design here. The materials I used were 12 pixel heart cuts on cardstock, scissors, and glue. I don't own a die cut machine so I cut out the hearts individually with an x-acto knife. Then I glued the 12 layers together. I used black embroidery thread for a necklace chain.

It was a fun, quick project and pretty cute to look at

Origami Fidget Toy

The origami fidget toy ended up a total accident. I was trying to create a different complicated origami design and ended up inventing this. It can twist and turn in a bunch of directions and is a great toy for idle hands. My friends often come over and pick it up without even realizing it. The design is made up of  96 7cmx7cm sheets of colored paper and one large white sheet glued to the back of the 16 squares.

It's colorful and silly just as a good fidget toy should be.

Gift Bag Flower Ornaments

A friend taught me how to make these gift bag hanging flower ornaments. Materials include 8 gift bags, string, scissors, double sided tape, and a hole punch. From the photos you can follow the process. First cut off the bottom parts of the gift bags. Then cut the other end into a triangle shape. Organize colors in green, pink order. Punch a hole through all 8 bags, tie with string, and use double sided tape to tape all bags together

Fast and easy to make, these are great hanging decorations for a dorm room.
