Here are the tools we suggest having on hand to help make your paper craft stress free.<\/p>\n
\n- Cutting Mat:<\/strong> This is used as a protective base on which to safely cut and detach paper craft pieces.<\/li>\n
- Utility Knife:<\/strong> A scalpel-like blade works best, but any type of utility knife will likely be more effective than scissors when you\u2019re trying to make precise cuts and trim edges.<\/li>\n
- Bone Folder:<\/strong> This is used to mark score lines on the paper, which will make folding easier and provide a cleaner crease.<\/li>\n
- Ruler or Straight Edge:<\/strong> This helps with marking score lines.<\/li>\n
- Tweezers:<\/strong> This helps with handling pieces that are too tiny for fingertips to manage. We recommend tweezers with pointed tips for best results.<\/li>\n
- Glue:<\/strong> Low-temperature hot glue or super glue works best.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
