3*26*11

Need something to amuse yourself and take you mind off absolutely everything for about an hour? You could do some origami, or maybe even some kirigami (thats where you cut the paper before you fold it).

Occasionally the ol' office day job gets real boring. Making powerpoint presentations and whitepaper layouts... it's just about the least creative creative job there is.

But I've been working on a project with a couple folks where I am trying to get customers to click on a banner ad on the blog. The only rule about the banner ad is that it can't be Webtrends branded. Pretty easy, huh?

So my idea was to give people something for free. At first we were thinking a sticker. Click the banner. Give us your contact info. We mail you a sticker.

But then we thought, no! Let it be instant! Like a template that you can download to make origami or kirigami! And it could relate somehow to the products we sell. An informative little folding project....

What do you think?

While you think on it, why don't you go do a little origami and kirigami yourself?



Right here you will find the most gorgeous owl ever, and a few other fun kirigami projects. Perfect if you need some decorations for the cubicle or kitchen.

And... get your totally rad folding monthly calendar right here! It's even designed in Portland!

  1. Who doesn't love origami? My hubby is teaching me a frog and half-learned an elephant from a friend over lunch today. What about a simple paper airplane - doesn't everyone need one of those?
