Orite (Weaving Letter)

Season's greetings,thanks, and birthday celebration...What do you send a letter for ?

"Orite" is the weaving letter made of your favorite color, special texture of material, sometimes with sound and fragrance. Orite gives you special time.

For this activity you will need an envelope and thin paper to create a weaved pattern.

First , cut lines on the envelope using a box cutter.

(Using razor cutter would help you make more complex pattern.)

☆The more lines of the envelope, you can make more detailed pattern.

Next, cut paper and make thin slips of your favorite color.

☆At this time, you can use any kind of material.

For example cloth impregnated with perfume!

Then, weave the slips over and under each other and create pattern.

Assemble the envelope by using glue or double-sided tape.

Be sure to stick the slips to the envelope firmly.

I recommend you used double sided tape.

You can create various patterns using this method.

Here is some examples.
