We return to the Robert C. Williams Museum of Papermaking for another interactive experience.  This time, in a 1-hour workshop, we will discover a unique art form and prepare a petal fold book with our own thoughts and words. 

The petal fold book technique combines book binding with origami to create a book that blooms, or unfolds at it opens. The book has decorative, paper-wrapped, tag-board covers, 8 origami folded pages with a ribbon binding and closure.  Here is a sample:  Origami Book
