Giveaway: Paper Lamp kit and a copy of the book Playing With Pop-ups

 Today I have a fun giveaway that includes a paper lamp kit and a copy of the book Playing With Pop-ups both by Helen Hiebert. Leave a comment in today’s post by January 23, 2015 and you will be in the running. Open to U.S. residents only please.

Envelopes are fun to work with because they come in a variety of colors and sizes, and other papers can easily be slipped into the pocket. This clever piano hinge allows the panels of the mini folding screen to flex in both directions, enabling the screen to be displayed in a variety of ways, or even folded into a box-shaped lantern. Choose patterns reminiscent of stained glass, slip decorative papers inside, and set the screen in a spot where it can catch some light. This project is for ages 13 and up. Finished size is approx. 6? x 20? x 4?.

This kit includes:

(4) A7 envelopes

Japanese lace paper

leaf stencils

template for hinge

bamboo skewers

Helen has designed a bunch of cool paper kits. You can see her others at her website Helen Hiebert Studios.
