Hello! A word from your admins here…

You may have noticed that we haven’t given you many of our own original tutorials lately. We have good reason!

Eve has been moving from New Zealand to Australia, and she and her family are busy settling into their new life.

I (June) have been busy too, but for a different reason: I have been writing a papercraft book about paper chains and garlands. I’ve been working really hard for the past couple of months designing the projects, creating the samples, writing the instructions and drawing the illustrations, and now it’s finally coming together!

A teaser: here are some of the papers that I used for the book sample projects!

It’s going to be a really fun book – it will come in a kit with pretty papers so you can get crafting immediately! My book should be out in the US through Barnes & Noble in late summer 2009. The process has been a lot of fun, a phenomenal amount of work, and a big eye-opener into the world of print publishing. I’ll share more details (and pictures) as the publication date approaches…

We are both still very committed to making Folding Trees live up to our tagline of the best tutorials and paper creations online. Eve and I are looking forward to having some more time available soon, to share some more of our own paper creations and tutorials with you

Thank you all for continuing to visit Folding Trees for your daily paper-crafty inspiration!

Hi Everybody,

Well here is a small announcement from me, Eve.  After months of planning, packing and in general a little too much stress my family and I are flying from New Zealand to Australia today to start a new life. So yes change is good and we are all very excited.
