It's Folding Time!

Over the next few weeks we're going to try our hand at Origami for our art lessons - Hopefully we'll have some fun, a few giggles and be 'in creases'! 

I'm going to be learning how to make different art pieces using different folding techniques with paper as well! I'm not the greatest at origami but we can all learn together! Looking up videos on Youtube is an easy way to learn - I've found lots of easy ones and loads of tricky ones :)

Have a look at some of these videos and see if you can see any that start similarly to each other:

Here is a link to a blog with lots of stunning origami projects to have a look at!

I'll leave you with an Origami themed joke... "I heard some people broke into an Origami exhibition over the weekend and ruined all the exhibits. Police are trying to work out how the events unfolded!"

Ha ha ha!

Happy Folding!
