Learn Iris paper folding and make a card for someone special. The paper craft technique involves folding strips of colored paper in such a way to form a design. This program is made to go home.
By registering for this take-home program, you are reserving one or more kits for pick up at the Aboite Branch.

Request multiple kits by using the "Add More People" option during registration. You will receive one kit for each person registered.
The center of the design forms an iris — a shape reminiscent of the iris diaphragm of a camera lens. Iris folding originated in 20th-century Holland, where early craft people made their designs using patterned paper cut from the inside of envelopes.
