Description

Create a garden of verdant, hand-crafted beauty, where paper blossoms burst into life. The book leads budding paper gardeners through a variety of 50 leaves, flowers and potted plants, from bold monstera leaves and dainty forget-me-nots to trailing ivy and a fruit-laden lemon tree.

  • Interspersed throughout are stunning 'exploded flower' photographs, enabling you to see the components close up
  • Learn essential papercrafting techniques, from basic folding and cutting to more advanced paper modelling, using wires as armatures to give your plants and flowers structure and life, and using small amounts of double-sided tape or glue to secure your creations
  • Unleash your imagination and experiment with different paper types and textures, including crepe and tissue
