We have reached a big goal today! Today we will be making the model featured on the front of the book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades - a paper sloyd twine holder. When we first began paper sloyd, I remember looking at that diagram and thinking how complicated it was. In fact, I even hesitated to start because of the complexity of that image.

We've made several boxes on our paper sloyd journey. The complexity of each grows as we progress through the course.

There's something special about giving a gift that you've made yourself. It shows that little extra effort, the extra thought, and extra time. As with any creation that you have made, it is giving a piece of yourself to another person, and being vulnerable to criticism. It doesn't always have to be a herculean effort to convey your feelings, though. Today, because Valentine's Day is around the corner, and because we have been doing so much paper sloyd, we are going to show you an extremely simple paper folding craft. We are going to...
