    These are lovely! We enjoyed making some from the Klutz book one year. They are as wonderful as real flowers.

    Yours are much prettier and detailed than the ones that I made with the boys a while ago. Nice job!

    My first memory of tissue paper flowers is from a trip to Six Flag Over Texas when I was about 8 or 9 years old. They were huge and bright and I had to have one. Kept that thing for years.
    Your flowers have taken it up a notch. :)

    The last time I tried making those I was in something like 5 or 6 grade in Girls Scouts!! That would put it as the late '70s!! Your's look great.

    Perfect day to go browsing thru your archives! I've been looking for inspiration for tissue paper roses to decorate my Christmas tree, and here it is.

    (Have I mentioned I love your photography? It's so cheery and fresh.)
