Paper Christmas Review

Craft your Christmas with Paper Christmas: 16 Papercrafting Projects for the Festive Season by Emily Dawe. In her beautiful book Emily shows how to make fabulous handmade decorations. Celebrate the holidays with homemade cards, tags, wraps, stars, angels, snowflakes and much more. Her inspiring collection is made entirely with paper and embellished with everyday craft supplies like glue, glitter, scissors, twine, paint etc. Use your choice of paper - wrapping, origami, handmade, card, kraft, recycled or other. There are projects for varying abilities - from a simple paper snowflake, to an origami star, to a striking paper wreath. I love Emily's use of color. It isn't limited to red and green. She uses sparkly golds, blues and rich jewel tones. Her styling is very appealing and modern. 64 full-size templates are included - so no photocopier is needed to complete the projects. Make your Christmas extra special! The complete table of contents is listed below. Search Press released the 112 page paperback on July 31, 2018. It is also available in e-book format.

This is the origami star I made from page 48. It is not difficult to make. Fifteen sheets of origami paper are folded and then assembled together.
