    Origami Stationery - Michael G. LaFosse

    Introduction

    The art of the letter and the hand written note are time-honored ways to convey important and personal thoughts. Fine papers, ink and penmanship help to underscore the personal touch, and they can convey something of the personality of the sender or the spirit of the occasion.

    Many notes are delivered folded and slipped into envelopes, keeping the contents private. However, the manner of folding a note is another special touch that can add so much more to the experience, for both writer and recipient.

    In this kit you will find both traditional and modern examples of the art of the folded note. The scope is from simple to intricate; abstract to representational; somber to whimsical: a wide range of possibilities! Custom printed papers are included to make your notes well dressed for any occasion.

    Once you learn how to fold any of these designs you can explore many kinds of fine papers for your notes. All of the projects use square shaped paper. You will find it easy to make larger or smaller notes and envelopes by folding from larger or smaller squares. You will soon have your favorites committed to memory. Then it is easy to write a quick note for a Thank you!, Sorry I missed you, or Congratulations! without a worry for informality. Even the humblest papers are elevated to elegance by folding.

    Ship Mates

    BY MICHAEL G. LAFOSSE, ADAPTED FROM THE TRADITIONAL PRELIMINARY BASE SAILBOAT.

    Like a double-heart locket, this note is only complete with its mate. It is a puzzle and a trick, but above all it is an elegant vehicle for a two-page letter.
