i bet if you were triple clever,

you could probably make a face appear in the pattern.

but then weirdos would show up and weep on the floor.

so on second thought, let's just leave it the way it is.

dipped at the fox is black.

from a galaxy not that far away.

star wars has been sweded. (sorta)

these are made with paper i bought at muji 

when we were in soho.

{ooooooh muji. thank you for not being over-styled.}

i keep cutting the paper smaller and smaller 

to make the tiniest crane possible.

this one was made out of a piece of paper 

about the size of a post-it.
just can't help myself when it comes to tiny things.

it's mesmerizing. once i get going it's hard to stop.
