Origami recipe hearts

I'm excited to be attending the next Brisbane ABCD Meetup at the Powerhouse in a couple of weeks. The gatherings are for all creative types who blog, and as I've never attended one before I thought it might be a nice opportunity to put some faces to names! I've even ordered myself some business cards in anticipation.

The most exciting part of all is that everyone can contribute a crafty treat to goodie bags for everyone to enjoy. Not having my own crafty business, I had to think long and hard about what I might be able to contribute. I eventually came up with the idea for these colourful origami hearts.





Inside each heart is a personal recipe of mine, which can only be read if you're willing to unfold the paper to reveal it.

If you're a crafty blogger in Brisbane and want to know what the recipe is, you'll just have to come along to the meetup! Check out the ABCD Facebook page if you're interested.

  4. Thanks lovely ladies! Jane, I did follow instructions in an origami book for the hearts, but the idea to put a recipe inside was all mine!
