SPECIAL FOLDING FUN SESSIONS
April 6th, 2003 (AM & PM)

Sunday, April 6th, 2003 - Morning (10:30am - 12:30pm)
 
TALKING & JUMPING FROGS taught by Larry Davis LOW INTERMEDIATE
Pull up a sheet of green paper and get ready to talk and jump with Larry. Aside from the really fun talking frog puppet, Larry will teach a variation -- the standing-singing frog (make a frog chorus!) and a variety of jumping frogs. Get hoppy!
 
BUNNY BOXES taught by Maria Velazquez INTERMEDIATE
Look who's hopping down the bunny trail! Maria can't wait to show you these boxes with bunnies ON them. Or are they bunnies with boxes IN them? Either way you look at it, they are great for filling with jelly beans and chocolate eggs!
 
ORILAND BOATS & MORE taught by Rachel Katz INTERMEDIATE
Take a trip to Oriland with Rachel! Begin with some lovely boats complete with a mast to hold the sail, and then move on to other models by the Shumakovs as time permits. For more photos of oriland models, check-out www.oriland.com.
 
KUSUDAMA taught by Jinni Xu HIGH INTERMEDIATE
The word Kusudama actually means "medicine ball" and it is any origami that brings together many units to make a ball shape. Jinni will teach this six-piece kusudama by Peter Budai. The modules have a flower-shaped center that really takes advantage of shaded papers.
 
ORCHID taught by Jan Polish HIGH INTERMEDIATE
On her last trip to Italy, Jan learned this lovely orchid created by Daniela Carboni. Folded from a single square, it is as elegant as the real thing and maybe better-there's no need for special watering, lighting or fertilizer-just careful folding. It even has a thin stem that fits perfectly in a button hole.
 
Sunday, April 6th, 2003 - Afternoon (2:30pm - 5pm)
 
BUNNY & BASKET taught by Liz Ou Yang SIMPLE
Liz will teach this bevy of bunnies including a bunny bookmark, a simple standing rabbit, an inflatable rabbit, and a shy rabbit (with two pieces of paper) by Susanna Kricskovics. And then to finish up-- a basket to hold all your bunnies! These models are simple and fun. Make sure you bring your carrots!
 
MODULAR STAR OF DAVID taught by Omer Shalev INTERMEDIATE
Omer will teach these modular six-pointed stars from (you guessed it) 6 units each. Some are folded from squares, some from equilateral triangles, but all have the potential for pretty patterns that look great on a card or gift. At least two stars will be taught and more as time permits.
 
FLOWER BOX taught by Ros Joyce INTERMEDIATE
Here's a flower box that never needs watering-- except when you make it--the box is wetfolded so it is extra strong when dry. Ros will teach the box from her stash of beautiful papers and then move on to an array of flowers which (with the help of a little Styrofoam and wire) stand up in the box to make a perfect spring decoration for your desk or table.
 
GIFT CONTAINERS taught by Rose Malinconico INTERMEDIATE
Rose will teach an assortment of unusually shaped containers that, with the addition of a small piece of ribbon, will provide a lovely nesting place for some of your favorite potpourri, candies, or a small gift.
 
JITTERBUG taught by Wendy Zeichner INTERMEDIATE
Wendy loves modulars and this one's a keeper. An innocent looking 12-piece that is really an action model. It is an open-frame modular, and when you press on the ends it collapses into a tetrahedron and "jitterbugs" easily between both shapes. Wendy will provide pre-cut paper of coordinating colors and you'll be jitterbugging in no time.
