This chopstick/cutlery holder was the first. This was what it was supposed to look like

This is what it turned out to be, I didnt even complete it hahaha

Here is another one, beautiful flower:

This is what happened hahaha, I know what went wrong with this one, the papers must be bigger

100 Day Project - Day 1 - Kusudama

Hi Everyone,

 its been a long time between postings, life has taken over. I can't believe it was 4 years ago since I posted anything. Gardening has taken a back seat while the weather is atrociously hot and humid and unbearable, this year has been the worst. So February is the Month of letters where we write a letter or postcard a day to anyone, friends, penpals, family. Every year I'vre attempted this and failed, life got in the way. this year I was determined to complete 28 letters for the month. So far I've been on track and posted 20 letters in 12 days. Then I saw a post for 100 day project and my curiosity got the better of me. Basically you choose a project to do over a 100 days, it doesn't have to be consecutive days. The project I picked is Origami because I love that. paper and folding. I think it was harder to find 100 projects to fold lol. I delved into my history of folding and old favourites came to mind. I am going to start with my favourite flower to make: Kusudama

At the point it needs to be glued with a glue gun, I picked the thickest cardstock I could put my hands on, dont do that hahahaha, pick something softer. I have a hard time finding origami paper. anyway this flower needs a sturdier paper than 80gsm, probably something like 100gsm 

Watch this space for more
