The Next Art Craze: Kokoru

Manila Workshops, together with IFEX (International Fine Exchange Paper) and Kokoru, are happy to introduce Corrugated Paper Crafting through their workshop, entitled “Koko-Cute: A Kokoru Workshop”. This will be held on August 23, 2014 at the Shine Bakery, 3rd City.

Corrugated Paper is probably one of the most under-rated art materials that we have nowadays. Little people would know that with just some corrugated paper and a few simple craft supplies, you would be able to come up with beautiful projects. Corrugated paper crafting is definitely fun for all ages. Make beautiful items with this versatile paper. You can make stationery, notecards, boxes, cute displays and even decorate your scrapbook. Making these projects is definitely fun for the whole family!

And as a primer to Corrugated Paper Crafting, Manila Workshops, has invited Jonessa Cubacub, a corrugated paper crafter to teach both the young and the young at heart to learn how to go about this. During this workshop, all of the items will be included and a step by step guide will be done in order to walk you through the whole process. This particular workshop will focus on teaching you how to create your very own corrugated paper animals and pencil toppers.

Workshop fees are as follows:
• Early Bird Rate: PHP 1,500 (paid by August 8, 2014)
• Regular Rate: PHP 1,700 (starting August 9, 2014)
• Group Rate: PHP 1,300 per participant (group of 3 or more participants)
