This Friday’s featured artist is Australian artist Marcelle Crosby and her lovely folded paper dresses.
These sweet vintage map dresses bring back wonderful memories of places I've visited – and places I dream to still see!

Marcelle writes:
For years I was a nanny. I made the first 2 dresses for the 2 girls that I used to look after. It snowballed from there. I quit nannying and started folding full time. I have always had nimble fingers and a creative mind. These dresses are testament to that fact and now these beautiful dresses have been created to embellish the walls of little girl’s rooms and big girl’s rooms alike.
The thought that a little part of me and something that I have personally made is hanging on walls all over the world gives me such a thrill!
