Modular Origami Ring (Maria Sinayskaya)

//or is it a coaster? I'm never sure//

rectangles 1:√3, 6 units, no glue

Reverse side

The model has a nice non-sliding-out lock - which will be tricky to diagram, if it ever comes to that.

Vintage gift wrap with all the creatures of the forest.

I have been looking for this paper for 7+ years. Finally... found a sheet of it on etsy! Hooray!

National Smell My Hand Day was, I'm pretty sure, entirely an invention of Nickelodeon.

DIY. An old magazine file, some decoupage glue and wrapping paper from House Doctor.

Swirled Mountain Box (José Meeusen)

Each box is folded from a single uncut square.

 

Spotted this design in a recent "story" shared by José Meeusen

Sarah cut a hole in the package and decide to do some work inside. Drinking some Starbuck's Coffee.

I think this may be by Rust Craft but I'm not sure..

 

PADDY: "Now for the paper, Scout!"

 

SCOUT: "But it's such pretty paper Paddy, and Daddy has wrapped my present so well. It would be a shame to tear it."

 

COUSIN PADDINGTON: "Oh no Scout, you must tear the paper! It's a birthday tradition!"

 

SCOUT: *Looks guiltily between Paddy and Cousin Paddington.* "Oh... alright then. Here goes..." *Paper tears beneath trembling little woollen paws.*

 

My Paddington Bear came to live with me in London when I was two years old (many, many years ago). He was hand made by my Great Aunt and he has a chocolate coloured felt hat, the brim of which had to be pinned up by a safety pin to stop it getting in his eyes. The collar of his mackintosh is made of the same felt. He wears wellington boots made from the same red leather used to make the toggles on his mackintosh.

 

He has travelled with me across the world and he and I have had many adventures together over the years. He is a very precious member of my small family.

 

Scout was a gift to Paddy from my friend. He is a Fair Trade Bear hand knitted in Africa. His name comes from the shop my friend found him in: Scout House. He tells me that life was very different where he came from, and Paddy is helping introduce him to many new experiences. Scout catches on quickly, and has proven to be a cheeky, but very lovable member of our closely knit family.

 

Cousin Paddington is a recent visitor to our family. Travelling all the way from London, he was caught in transit thanks to the Coronavirus pandemic, so it looks like he is stopping with us for a while. The more I look into his happy, smiling face, the more attached I am becoming to him.

I'm pretty sure this was produced by Whitman.

Many layers of paint cover the thick railing along the riverwalk on Upper Wacker drive. The texture of the railing drew me to wrap a nebula around it. Softly in the background is the Wrigley Building.

Thanks all for the birthday wishes I've already received!

 

I'm 38 years old today and proud of it. :-)

 

Hey, look at that. Another year gone by, another number added to the tally.

 

Not much to say, today, folks -- just going to veg out and ruminate on that mighty tide called, "The Future."

 

A reminder that the new website is up and functioning at www.terribleminds.com -- go, peruse, enjoy the filthy mind-purge that is my blog (and "blog" always sounds like someone's throwing up, doesn't it? "I just blogged in that bucket over there").

 

This, by the way, is the reflective material that our Easter hyacinths were wrapped in, dotted with waterdroppies.

 

(HBW!)

doing some spring cleaning, found this cute piece of vintage wrapping paper.

PADDY: "Look Scout! Golden birthday candles, and..." *Gasps and puts paw to mouth.* "Dark chocolate teddy bear lollipops!"

 

SCOUT: "Hoorah Paddy! Happy birthday! Grumbly tummy Paddy! Grumbly tummy Daddy!" *Rubs tummy even more vigorously.*

 

PADDY: "Hullo everyone! Do you know what? Bears have two birthdays. Do you know what else? Today is one of my birthdays! And do you know what else? Today is my Daddy's birthday too! Isn't that a wonderful coincidence!"

Tiny slices of 12x18" kraft paper. Kinda successful.

SCOUT: "These ribbons are so tricky!" *Pulls on ribbons with paws.*

 

PADDY and COUSIN PADDINGTON: "Pull Scout! Pull! It's your birthday Hoorah!" *Clap paws enthusiastically.*
