The Golden Fold

A shiny square of golden foil wrapper was sitting right on the cork desk mat, practically begging for a makeover! I smoothed the crinkles flat with the palms of my hands, then got straight to work. Folding crisp metallic paper takes serious pressure, so after lining up the triangular corners, I hopped up and stomped down along the crease with the heel of my boot! Crisp fold number one—locked! A few more sharp tucks and inverted folds, and I had shaped a gleaming, five-pointed mini crown. I scooped it up and wedged it snugly right between my two yarn buns. Backstage fashion upgrade complete!
