Origami Box

January 18, 2013 By Spoonful of Sugar - 6 Comments

One of the tasks that we always like to do during the school holiday period is a big clean/sort out of the teens bedrooms so that they are nice and organised. They always like to tidy and restock their desk with supplies, ready for the new academic year.

Sarah has been enjoying a spot of origami lately, and has made a little open origami box. The origami box is perfectly sized to hold some pins for her pin up board.

You can find the instructions for the box on Origami Club. Sarah used origami paper that was 5 inch square.  This would be a great Back to School project to help kids organise their desks. There are loads of other fun origami projects with clear instructions over on Origami Club.

Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a piece of fabric they're a little afraid to cut into.

You know the one.

The fabric that's too pretty, too special, or waiting for the perfect project.

I've certainly been guilty of saving beautiful Liberty fabrics for "someday". But over the years I've realised something:

The joy isn't in owning the fabric.

The joy is in turning it into something you'll use, display, gift, or enjoy every day.

Some of my favourite sewing projects began with a Liberty fabric I was hesitant to cut into. Looking back, I've never regretted using it. The only fabrics I've regretted are the ones that sat folded away for years waiting for the perfect moment.

Beautiful fabric deserves to become something beautiful.
