Make fresh and fashionable origami projects for girls with this fun origami kit!

When Cindy Ng was ten, she desperately wanted a pair of high heels, but her mother wouldn't let her have them. Even when she was old enough to wear heels, she still had to dream about looking cool—because she could barely walk in them! No problem! Cindy decided if she couldn't wear cool heels, at least she could fold them. And that was the beginning of Girligami

This new modern and contemporary paper craft kit is origami with a sassy twist—a box full of fun that lets crafters turn bits of paper into 3D origami fashion, romance and all things cute and pretty. Each of the custom-designed origami projects takes only a minute to make and are a great way to learn origami. The full-color origami book gives clear step-by-step instructions on how to make each 3D origami model. And it has an added section showing origami paper folders how to turn their paper creations into cool earrings, greeting cards and other useful and not-so-useful (but no less fun) things folders can give to their friends. The glossy, custom-patterned origami folding sheets are all imprinted with guidelines for easy, foolproof folding.
