Thank you 2008

Thank you very much for visiting bloomize in 2008 and making it a joy for me to leave my notes and scribbles here, knowing that you will be here too.

We will be leaving for a short vacation to Hong Kong + Macau in a few days (with 11 others from my side of the family!!) and I will resume posting on the second of week of January. Here’s wishing you and yours a Christ-centred Christmas, a happy new year and a safe holiday season!

In the meanwhile, do check out these Japanese websites with fabulous Flash designs.

Fold + cut a standing paper Christmas tree

I really enjoy making and dressing up these standing trees with my favorite mini dot stickers and an origami star. Here’s what I did:


1. Use a square.
2. Fold half lengthwise, breathwise and diagonalwise to get these creases.
3. Fold diagonally.


4. Fold up a triangle as shown.
5. Repeat on the right.
6. Unfold.


7. Hold on to C.
8. Bring flap behind A.
9. Repeat on the other side to slip in behind B.


10. Get hold of one of the pouches.
11. Flatten it.
12. Repeat 10-11 on the remaining three.


13. Cut along dotted lines to create trunk.
14. To make branches, cut slits towards the top.
15. Bend the slits behind each flap.

OR, alternatively to make branches:

A. Make slits downwards.
B. Fold each slit behind as indicated by the triangular outline.
C. This is what it looks like behind.

Notes:

  • The tree will still be cute even if you omit the branches.
  • To make the trunk longer, I will snip off a portion of the flaps.
