Willow the boxer

My lovely editor at Lark Books, Ms. Beth Sweet who worked on Paper Pups book with me posted this photo recently on BarkBox Facebook. This is Willow: a female boxer who lives with Beth. This photo was taken in July last year during our photo session for Paper Pups. Willow is such a gentle and sweet girl. In this photo, she is mellowing right next to her look-a-like I made for Beth.

BarkBox

Good folks at BarkBox just posted this article on their website about my book "Paper Pups".

They post all kinds of good stuff about dogs on their site. For this post, the staff even made some of the dogs from the book to be their office pups. Check these out. I love these people!

Here is their Facebook page.

Martha Stewart Living blog

Martha Stewart Living posted a review of my "Paper Pups" book on their crafts blog. I enjoyed the paper dogs their staff made from my book with some creative patterns.

Nature's Rancher

My dear friend and owner of Stolz-Mead Global Advertising Agency David Stolz kindly offered me a couple of spots on the web site of his recent venture called, "Nature's Rancher". He started this new line of organic meat products a year or so ago and he is doing really well with this brand. His products are sold at Whole Foods all over the US and Canada. I recorded a couple of short videos of me making paper animals from my book "Kirigami Menagerie" and uploaded them for kids to see so that they can learn how to make paper craft projects (after they eat delicious meat products of Nature's Rancher, of course). When you click on the menu that says, "Kidz Zone", you get a video on how to make a cow, and when you click on menu that says ,"Pork", you get to see me make a piglet.

Kirigami Animals review video

I came across this You Tube video someone posted reviewing my Kirigami Animal kit.

I appreciate that this boy did a really good job making the animals following the instructions. Here is the link.

Enjoy!
