365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Lighting In The New Year
Day 90: The origami light string is done, and the lights are lit to bring in the new year in festive fashion. This was a fun project! The string holds 20 clear bulbs (a flasher and spares were included) and the kit supplied enough origami paper for 25 balls. Approximately 2/3 of the paper was unpatterned, and the selection of patterned pieces contained both standard origami sheets and some in heavier rice paper. I was pleased to see that the heat generated by the lights was minimal. I left the string on for several hours last night, and the paper never felt overly warm.
