I was surfing around on the Internet and came across directions for this origami necktie -- the perfect accessory for all those Father's Day shirt cards. I was trying to figure out how to make a tutorial that would be easy to follow and I decided to try video. Please comment and let me know what you think.
Here are "hard copy" directions:

The video is great - what an awesome idea! Especially loved the technical term, "squiggly business". Thank you!

Awesome video!! (and your accent is so cute! LOL!). And here I was thinking that I could NEVER do a card like that. Now I want to give it a try!
P.S. Hope it's okay that I linked to your awesome blog from my blog. Please let me know if that's not cool.

Hi!
Just saw the video and idea which are great!
Also spares some space for the child to personalize it.
Thank you very much for the tip.

It's good for graduations too -- make the shirt dark blue and use a dollar for the tie!
