You went from paper dolls to paper shredding (easy, not Enron style) in the blink of an eye. You’re all grown up, and arts and crafts time these days seems reserved for creative cocktail-making.

Get back to scissors and glue by way of GamiWorks. The Heights artist behind the line uses chirogami, the ancient Japanese artform of printed papers, to make modern handmade jewelry, gifts and home accessories. We love her well-priced tiny gift tins and candles in vibrant designs. The best part is, you can buy her easy-to-follow tutorial and get inspired to make your own paper pretties.

Which would be a good way to get rid of all those catalogs and other incriminating documents.
