So what is Iris Folding?

Iris folding is a bit like painting by numbers but using folded paper strips instead of paint!

"It's so easy - I learnt to do it when I was seven years old!"

Sharing the joy of pretty papers

There's a kind of playful mindfulness that happens when you pay attention to how colors and patterns stir your emotions. As you spend time on paper cutting and folding to make beautiful greeting cards and gifts, you experience an inner joy. And you can pass on that joy to others by giving away what you have lovingly made!

Meet the maker

Hey fellow crafter, I'm Bethan and I'm passionate about being creative and having a positive impact on others through craft. I aim to do this by teaching the art of iris folding and I hope the resources and ideas on this site inspire you to explore iris folding and enjoy creating with pretty papers.


Crafting love, B 🌸

Card Making Kit Halloween| Mini Iris Folding Card Kit | Beginner Bat and Pumpkin
Loved making both the Bat and Pumpkin cards

I have a daughter who loves everything Halloween so for her Birthday in July I made the Pumpkin card, and then I have a son-in-law who works for Bat Research and Conservation so for his birthday in July I made the Bat card.

Wonky Gonks Card Making Kit

I found the Wonky Gonks kit very easy to make and very therapeutic as well. The only suggestion I would make is to have the printed embellishments pre-cut. Other than that, it is a fun kit to make 😊
