After seeing the sweet Origami Dresses over at Craft & Creativity, I was inspired to make an Origami Dress Card for a special friend’s birthday. There is a helpful uTube video that guides you through the steps on folding the dress.
It would be fun to make up a batch of dresses and them frame them to decorate a little girls bedroom. I think I will be making a lot more of these origami dresses.
The dresses are quite easy to make – they would be fun creative activity to do with kids over the school holidays.
As I love to give hand made, I also sewed a House Lavender Sachet to pop in with my friend’s gift, using the fabulous tutorial over at Retro Mama (complete with a Number 1 for her new house that is under construction!)
