Great choices for the paper theme. I had to smile at the fortune you gave us. Happy weekend.

Oh gee. I see all of my public school students are origami stars! Those fortune tellers litter the school some days! They can't add but they sure can fold!

In answer to amazing grace, yes children still do make fortune tellers :-)

Suzi-k said...

oooh that takes me back, sometime in the dark ages we used to make those too! I admire you so much with the studying, I don't think people with young, un-rusty brain cells appreciate how much harder it gets as we get older!

Well, Miss Ruth, those are all GREAT examples of paper! Now, you told me your TP was "dull", but I have never seen TP with "decorative" embossing before! Am I deprived? hehehe

Goodness, I forgot about those little paper "fortune tellers"...I remember as kids, we used to play with those things all the time. How funny!!

Happy weekend, dear friend!!!!

we used to make such pumusquerie at school. can't remember what on earth i used to call them.

Kate said...

My kids still make those fortune tellers. I expect my grandbabies will some day too :)

I don't know sometimes if people stop to think how much of our lives and our joys are related to paper!

Trinity said...

That fortune teller as took me back over 40 years to when we played that in the school yard at dinner times.. We also made papper chains at Christmas too, I bet you did also.

Excellent choices. I love paper mache. So many wonderful and creative things you can do with it.

I remember making those Origami Fortune Teller when I was younger. It brought back happy memories.
