Here's a little teaser from our Celtic Charms CD. It's a harp and flute arrangement we did of Carrickfergus, a beautiful, haunting traditional melody.
About Me
- Nathalie Younglai & Catherine Richardson
- For the past 18 years, we've been making moula making music together and still lovin' it. Weddings, concerts, corporate functions, parties, showers, you name it, we play it. Well....almost. We've moved the harp in sun, rain, sleet and gusting wind. And we could not live without our music.

Arigato Pak tutorial
So now you know when you buy your Celtic Charms CD, each one has been lovingly folded by Nat & Cat :)
Although it's many steps, it's quite meditative to fold and fold and fold and fold and fold and fold. In case you want to have a Zen moment too, here's my step-by-step tutorial:
 |
| Arigato Pak 1 of 1000. |
 |
| Step 1 - Pre-fold all the folds. |
 |
| Step 2 - The first real fold. |
 |
| Step 3 - Way easier than Ikea. |
 |
| Step 4 - A little nudge here... |
 |
| Step 5 - And a little nudge there.... |
 |
| Step 6 - I should have gotten a manicure. |
 |
| Step 7- Almost there! |
 |
| Step 8 - It's tricky to hold the camera and fold the last fold. |
 |
| Step 9 - Now you see the 100% recycled text... |
 |
| Step 10 - And now you don't. Tada! |
 |
| Musicians have feelings too. |
There you have it - How to Fold Your Arigato Pak in 10 Easy Steps. Now if you'll excuse me, we have nine hundred and ninety-nine more to go.
