How to make Paper Flowers Tutorial
Whilst browsing Etsy, one of my favourite websites for handmade inspiration, I stumbled upon this excellent tutorial for making elegant parchment flowers from the wonderful paper wizard, Jeffrey Rudell.
Pretty flowers and pretty simple to make. I am going to try crafting something similar, possibly using pastel blues, muted greens, creams and whites for a sea colour theme. I really do want fresh flowers and grasses for the wedding but as we haveĀ little budget for this and I really don’t want to use fabric flowers, I may consider paper flowers as part of the centerpieces instead.
There are numerous pictures of paper flowers on the internet. Here are a few of my favourites. Some are very life like and others more decorative. I am going to try experimenting with both, possibly using pattered paper for some. I have noticed that most of my favourites are from Martha Stewart Crafts but they don’t seem to be available anymore.
