WIP Wednesday

 Preparing for today's origami class has been a "work in progress" for me for a couple of weeks off and on.  I wanted to be sure we had plenty of supplies, and that I felt confident with the directions for the projects we were doing. 
~*~
Because you need clean, dry hands for folding paper, we did not have snacks during the lesson part of the party.  Just for a little treat, though, I folded little boxes for everyone ahead of time and had Sophie fill them with individually wrapped lifesavers.  She loved passing them out!
~*~
I could not have had a more gracious, fun and creative group of women for this event.  I think everyone enjoyed themselves, and learned a couple of useful origami skills in the process.  Every person left with several completed wallets and boxes, as well as a crane favor.  There's even talk of a possible follow up "class" in August!

My work in progress for next week will be a custom order for sosorosey- two large ruffled pot holders.   How about you?  Whatcha got going on in your house these days?

As a beneficiary of today's "origami class" I can officially say it was a wonderful success! We all learned, laughed, and left with skills, self crafted items, and happy memories of a fun filled lesson! Thank You to a great teacher, craftswoman, and DAUGHTER!!! :)
