Origami for children

Recreational paper-folding we now know as Origami has been around for over a thousand years. In Japan, the craft began shortly after the arrival of paper in the sixth century, though the name "Origami" wasn’t adopted into common usage until the 1800s.

While cutting was traditionally a part of origami, most modern practitioners—often called “folders”—eschew cutting (although it continues to be used in the Rokoan style of connected cranes).

Making models from paper can require very few resources and take mere minutes to fold. Complex designs, on the other hand, can take hours to complete.

We've been sharing the joy of paper-folding lately and the videos below are some of the Origami models we taught at our local school.  They are great for kids between 6 to 12 years-old and beginners in general.

What are the Benefits of a Personalised Guest Book?

Personalised Guest books have now become a trend. The most extraordinary thing about these is that they can be customised with beautiful covers and personal brand logos. These can even be loaded with pictures or welcoming notes by the owner.

Guest books are an important part of any event. These are used to store information of all the attendees at your function. Not just this, these also contain comments and feedback sections to give you a proper idea of how your occasion was perceived. While the most common use of these is at weddings, even corporates are increasingly using these at their gatherings.
