Japanese artist Maeda Baku turns tape into origami present toppers. Such a cute idea and perfect for that added touch to make your gift special! This would be so fun to try with all the pretty new tapes that are coming out lately too!

Haru’s paper mobiles are made from medallions of Lokta paper from Nepal. I adore the accent of the little heart at the end of the string! These would be beautiful outdoor decor too.

Ice Cream Cone Balloons by Martha Stewart
I think these ice cream cone balloons by Martha Stewart’s Craft Department are such a sweet idea for a child’s birthday party! Another great example of how paper can make every day objects extraordinary!

How clever are these invitations from On-Hand Modern? It’s a fun surpise to open a box and have a balloon rise up out of it! Perfect for a children’s birthday party.

I absolutely love this play day idea! Paper wings for kids to run around with, better than capes and certainly much prettier and magical!

Papa Rattle by Soopsori Toys
Play Fising by Soopsori
A friend of mine was recently blessed with the birth of her beautiful baby boy, and I have been meaning to bring baby William a special gift. As her Babys-R-Us registry was full of plastics, I thought this would be a great opportunity to share some of my favorite eco-friendly baby products with her. I decided on some fun rattles by Soopsori Toys. Have you heard of them? They are a wonderful Korean company committed to environmentally-friendly business practices. Soopsori partners with local NGOs to produce unique toys from 100% recycled and natural materials. Not only are they safe and sustainable, but they also look just adorable! Visit Soopsori online at http://www.ecowoodentoy.com/.

If you’re in the Berkeley area, stop by the Castle in the Air shop for some great demonstrations this summer! I love this one by D. Sharp, featuring her paper ephemera bird.
