This week’s paper sloyd hexagonal tray project presented a bit of a challenge. It is the 5th model from the 3rd year from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Edna Anne Rich. The 3rd year started easily enough but has quickly escalated, introducing us to some new tools and skills. Learning these new skills is exciting and rewarding, but it does take some time and occasionally some frustration to work through. The third year of paper sloyd has introduced the use of a compass. We have found that a compass can possibly be challenging for...

If you were waiting for the third year of paper sloyd to get a little more difficult, it just did! Our next paper sloyd project is the 4th model in the 3rd year from the book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. This model, a paper sloyd postal-card holder, gave us a struggle! We found the directions unclear and confusing. The good new is, we figured it out and we are sharing it with you, so you can enjoy the process without undue struggle.

Today we will be making our final model in our second year of paper sloyd. We will be making a pen box, which is project #14 from the second year, from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. This project is fairly simple, with minimal measuring and cutting. The final result is a little box that could have many uses. We may or may not have used ours in a ridiculous way, but it's kind of cute, if you happen to love hamsters. Materials Needed The book, Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah...

Have you been following along with us on our paper sloyd adventure? What began as overwhelming and intimidating has become something that we really enjoy. We've learned new skills and habits, and we've made many interesting objects. I think my favorite part is that I have found my children remaking the models on their own time, for their own purposes - and they were made with precision and accuracy, the result being something useful and beautiful. It truly made me proud! Today we will be making another paper sloyd picture frame. This will be...

Are you in dire need of a paper sloyd wall pocket? No? Neither are we. But it is the next project in our paper sloyd series, and so we are tackling it today! When learning sloyd, you will find that each subsequent model builds on the skills of the one before, so you don't want to skip a model just because you don't have a use for it. Our paper sloyd wall pocket is Project #11 from the second year, from the book Paper Sloyd for Primary Grades by Ednah Anne Rich. You may...
