Whilst holidaying back home last month, my husband and I headed down the coast for a mini holiday within a bigger holiday with some friends. Days were spent swinging in hammocks, reading books, lying on the grass in the cool tree shade, protected from the hot afternoon sun, swimming in crystal clear, salty water, lazing on the sand, canoeing in the lagoon, eating fabulously and having good old natters with everyone. It was just lovely. Lucky for me, one of our friends is an artistically gifted individual who suggested a bit of origami (after managing to sketch and paint a lovely little scene from the verandah view). We settled ourselves in for some paper folding and picked out a few of the easiest patterns to master first. Whilst folding, we imagined using paper similar to my wedding invitations (you can read more about them
