25 Days of Paper 2016, Day 25

Aren’t snowflakes miraculous, especially given that no two snowflakes are alike? They create the watermarked pattern on the December project in the Twelve Months of Paper calendar, which features the only paper in the custom paper pack that is handmade in America. I’m going to start looking for a miracle every day… they must be as abundant and variant as the snowflakes outside my window.

I love my Moleskine journals (and I’m guessing that some of you do too). I stumbled across this MyMoleskin Templates page that has a series of fun projects. You have to join MyMoleskine (very simple) to gain access. You’ll be able to download templates like the one below to create some fun paper objects!

Here’s a great story about an origami guy who offers hope through wishing. A lovely sentiment for this season and always!
