Origami Mobile Workshop
Grab your tickets at wildernessmuse.com !
I’m so excited to be holding my very first origami mobile making class for all ages and skill levels at the amazing Wilderness Muse!
If your family’s budget seeks experiences over objects, then this class is the perfect bang for your buck – leave with a fun memory and a beautiful origami mobile to hang in your home! AND with skills you can apply to a bunch of other kinds of artistic projects!
In this class I’ll walk you through how to fold three different shapes (tulip, crane and lucky star), tie a slip knot, and how to balance a mobile!
I’ll be bringing my own collection of foraged sticks and twisty vines, thread in all colors of the rainbow, a wide variety of beads, and an endless choice of colorful paper (patterns on one side, solid on the other!) – pre-cut for you!
Just choose your ingredients and I’ll walk you through how to make your very own, unique creation with them!
If you’ve ever had any desire to learn how to hang and balance a mobile, these are useful, tried & true, tips and tricks that can be applied to other types of mobiles.
