Lately, Arianna has been asking us for greeting cards she could use for making into boxes. She was taught how to do this by our day care provider and godmother, Rochelle Sherwin. I didn’t understand this at first, until the other day, the emptied her back pack and there were several sets. She can make lids, too, and the craftsmanship is pretty amazing for a five year old. They are pretty small, but they turn out really nice with the pictures that come on the greeting cards ending up on the top of the box lid. So she showed Cyndi and I how to make them(it is origami with some scissor cuts), and I thought this was worth some pictures.
