Funny, we were just discussing (my daughter and I) how the Danish Royal Family
gifts were wrapped and presented without the use of tape or adhesives. The sole

was considerable and very creative thought put towards this "origami"
type endeavor, on behalf of the these entitled little...

Though the craft is impressive, that came from that effort, so?
