DIY Paper Vase For Spring Makes An Amazing Gift!
When it comes to making a DIY paper vase, there are literally so many ways to go, though for me, the idea of using not successful artwork is a lightbulb moment that happened one evening. I was going to use an abstract pattern to create a vase, and in the same pile as that absract pattern was this sweet landscape that I liked, but didn’t love. As a vase however, it is fabulous! And friends, when you are in the groove of making lots of art, a way to use up anything you wouldn’t want to see on someone else’s wall is like gold! Even when painting on paper the…

A Giant Origami Clown Dressed Up As A Bird, For Purim!
I am reposting this because it is one of my all time favorites, and really festive. Plus you can use wrapping paper that you have hanging around, and it is the perfect size to put on your front door. Enjoy, and excuse me while I go figure out what decorations to make this year? Truthfully, the house is already decorated with lots of plastic bag pom poms and all my winter crafting, so it already looks like Purim, but there are a few things I’d like to fit in, on the other hand the art is calling! A giant origami clown makes a great decoration for the front door especially…

Origami Fruit For Tu B’Shevat!
Tu B’Shevat, the Jewish New Year for fruit bearing trees is next Wednesday night, so now is a great time to get crafting with a fruit theme in mind! I’ve dusted off these origami fruit from the archives, as this is a favorite that I revisit year round, not just for Tu B’Shevat, but also for Rosh HaShana and Succot, in the form of apples! Of course, a cute centerpiece like this one, with origami fruit in a variety of festive colors will be just the theme to set a festive tone for this really special holiday, and of course if you’d prefer a mobile would be amazing as well.…

Special Occasion DIY Star Cake, For Birthdays, Anniverseries, Or Just Because!
Need a relatively simple cake decor idea that will wow the crowd, look great from both sides and won’t take hours to make? This special occasion 3D star topped cake is really something to try, and once you have made the stars it can literally be assembled in minutes! I made a bunch of 3D paper stars for Chanukah, and then when I realized I could use them to make this cake, I really couldn’t believe how it all came together so quickly, and looked amazing, especially since it matched the decorations in the room! Of course these 3D stars can be made ahead and then used for a variety…

Origami Star Of David In 3 Minutes!
If you are folding some origami dreidels then you might just want an origami star of david or 20, to make a Chanukah garland or mobile. I looked into all the ways that one can make an origami star of david, and even stopped part way through the 15 minute folding adventure, as I need origami elements that can be made fairly quickly. So presenting the three minute origami star of David, that can really be made in 3 minutes, once you get the folding sequence down pat. Now, I do have to say, that while I am generally not interested in promoting creative activities that require perfection, origami unfortunately…
