This tutorial is an ingenious photo frame by Larry Hart. It’s a really useful fold and fits a 4 x 6 photo or postcard if made from A4. Our beautiful model is the late Tortie in her much younger days 😍

This versatile and simple modular elephant by Robert Foord is our #lastchancetofold video today. I think it’s ideal for show casing your packs of lovely patterned paper. Why not finally open that special pack and have a go?

Today’s video is the Weimar bowl by Nick Robinson. It’s an elegant but fairly simple model. Nick also includes instructions on how to divide a square into fifths. Remember there’s less than one more month before the videos get deleted. #lastchancetofold

A really original way of displaying a 1000 cranes. Myles custom built the inside of the 120 x 70 cm frame to create a dual shadow box. 500 strung cranes are on display at the front while 499 are hidden at the back. Myles has left the last crane unfolded so the owner of the wish can remain open.
