You know that feeling when you just HAVE to do something? This was one of them.

Having been inspired by the Origami envelope video, I just had to try out making Eid envelopes by recycling (or rather upcycling) some old newspaper.

Grabbed some paint and stencils from good ol’ Bras Basah complex, and those creative juices went flowing like rapids.

So it worked! But let’s see how many more can be made before my family’s Eid Open house party. For now, acryllic painting seems to have taken over henna painting!
