This Spring, my paper flowers book/kit went into its second printing, and it hit the shelves with a fresh new design. I'm so pleased with this new edition - it's cuter than the first!
The instructions and information inside the book are the same, as are most of the components of the kit. The paper is a little different than what was included in the original packaging, so I thought I would make a few flowers from the new kit and share them with you.
I love the new paper colors they selected -- they're fresh and vibrant. Though different from traditional crepe paper, this textured paper is sturdy and the blooms hold their shape well.
You can purchase a copy through your favorite indy book store. It's also available at
Barnes and Noble and through
Amazon. If you're in Tacoma, you can find it at
Compass Rose or at
King's Books!
I hope you'll pick up a kit and give this craft a try. Once you've made a few blooms from the book, I encourage you to pick up some other types of paper, and do a little experimenting. When you vary the paper, you vary the results.
