Make UR Own: Victorian Paper Puzzle Purse In-Person

Drop by the studio to fold and decorate your own Victorian Paper Puzzle. Though this paper folding technique predates the Victorian era, but it was so popular at the time that it is known by that name today. We'll start with a square piece of paper and through multiple folds, we'll end up with a small paper "puzzle" that folds open into multiple layers, eventually opening up to the center fold where you can place a small keepsake or write a sweet note. Each layer can be decorated, creating a unique visual experience while the recipient unfolds their puzzle. You can use this sweet little puzzle as a unique Valentine's Day card, a note for a friend, or a special addition to your next letter home!
