Hi Patreon Fam! In this video, I show you how to make a Victorian Puzzle Purse. These intricately folded letters were used to send sweet love messages or to hold small items such as buttons or other small items that could be easily lost. After you master the folding, you can decorate your Puzzle Purse any way you like. I used 140 lb watercolor paper for mine and colored it with Tombow Watercolor Markers. You're not limited to those, use whatever paper you like, any type of media to decorate it, including stickers! Just be mindful, some media might bleed through the paper.

21 cm x 21 cm Square sheet of paper

Scissors

Markers, colored pencils, watercolors, stickers, colored inks or whatever media you want to experiment with
