FOLDING, UNFOLDING, ENFOLDING


Box of Autumn by Eva of Tinctory. See blog here.


I read of someone writing poems on handmade paper, folding them into origami cranes and leaving them all over London, to brighten someone's day.
From origami cranes I pondered over writing a blog post about folding paper .... or fabric .... canvas or metal. I thought of folding dog ears in a book to keep one's place .... and unfolding. My thoughts inevitably wandered over to wrapping, unwrapping, folding, enfolding...... Thus, this post was born :-)
