SHOESTRING; MAKE FOLDER FOR STATIONARY, ORIGAMI, OR PAPER AIRPLANES


When you include homemade or loose items, it is nice for the kids to have a place to store them.

To make this, you will need:

Pocket Portfolio (15 cents from STAPLES back to school sale)
Ruler
Hole Punch, if tying
18" Ribbon or Twine

Optional: 
Velcro Dots
Scissors if you want to cut down the fold

Measure 5' down from the top edge of the portfolio and score a line going across.  You can use the back edge of pair of scissors or a bone folder.

Fold along the fold.  Creasing the fold.

Option 1:  While folded, punch holes for the ribbon closure

Option 2:  Place velcro sticky dots as pictured.


If using velcro, I would cut the portfolio along the middle down to the fold.


You can place origami paper (remember it needs to be square) in one pocket and instructions in the other.
