HOW TO: Make a geometric mobile

This modern, geometric mobile takes the form of a dodecahedron, one of the most interesting (and pretty) objects. Jammed pack with symmetries and the Golden Ratio, it has even been used to describe the shape of the universe! Admittedly, I am not exactly sure what that means, but it sure sounds cool. This dodecahedron, however, simply consists of 12 pentagonal pyramids; each with a mesmerizing spiral interior. So, pick your own color combination and create an inspired sky with these hanging decorations! 
Scale it up and make a big one!
And don't need to worry about getting the shape right. I've created a printable template to help you fold the perfect pentagonal pyramids.  Download it HERE!

Baking with Paper: Butter Croissant

I spotted these bark patterned wrapping paper at the art supply store, and immediately I knew that I had to "bake" some paper croissants.  
At the Fiber Lab Bakery, everything is vegan, gluten-free, and zero-calorie!
 Nom Nom Nom!
Disclaimer: real (and several) croissants were definitely consumed in the production of this paper sculpture and video.
