Day 1 – Puzzle Box (Taken with instagram) Canon has a website called Creative Park where they share a variety of paper crafts, from easy to complex. This puzzle box was one of the more complicated ones to cut, fold, and paste. But I’ve always loved constructing with paper and cardboard, so the instructions were familiar to me. My daughter could hardly wait for me to finish a puzzle piece before she started making the panda face. I really like how the designer made sure that all the pieces work together so you can create a random face as well.
With my first child entering kindergarten, I thought it was time to reenter the workforce. A regular schedule and a steady paycheck was really appealing. In an effort to stand out among applicants, I designed and handmade a portfolio presentation to send to prospective employers. Everything was customized to demonstrate my love of design and attention to detail. Unfortunately I couldn’t accept any offers because I subsequently conceived my second child. Oh well, more time for making and blogging.
