by Jeffrey Rutzky

**There Will Be One (1) Prize Winner.

Are you an origami expert looking for your next challenge? Or do you simply love learning about all things Eastern? Then kirigami is the craft for you. The Japanese art of weaving and cutting exquisitely colored paper into delightful designs has been practiced by cultures throughout the world for centuries. The simple and hip adornments-snowflakes, garlands, 3D masterpieces, etc.-add a touch of whimsy to any interior or can be linked together in charming patterns and strung along front porch frames, shop doors, or coffeehouse counters. Bright and architecturally thoughtful, the possibilities for kirigami decor are endless, and the best part is, YOU can create these little folded wonders.

This lovely kirigami kit will teach you the art and provide the materials necessary for hours of joyful practice. The 112-page, fully illustrated book provides easy to follow instructions for folding and cutting over 40 different kirigami designs that range in difficulty from beginner to expert. The step-by-step instructions clearly outline every fold and cut and even present possible mishaps and ways to avoid or correct mistakes. 30 sheets of vibrantly colored kirigami paper provide inspiration for each project, whether from the book or a creation of your own imagination.

NOTE: You will need a pair of sharp scissors and an X-acto knife. While children will enjoy the finished product, the art itself should be reserved for ages 13 and up.

In just two steps you’ll be entered in our Kirigami Drawing:
