The title lies. This is actually kirigami, but I’m not sure if that would have grabbed your attention! If origami is the art of folding paper, kirigami is the art of folding AND cutting paper. There are just two little snips involved in making these adorable little puffy hearts, so it’s not a very elaborate

[ezcol_1half] “Has anyone else noticed how hard it is to get motivated in January? It’s the month we’re supposed to exercise but it’s FREEZING outside and the sun has disappeared.
