This is great! I just tried one, real quick at my desk during lunch it was so fast and easy. At the size they recommend, they would be great hanging in windows, or corners of rooms, and I thought, if I can make them small enough they would make wonerful christmas tree decorations. Thanks for the great tutorial! I see lots of paper folding in my future.

Hey – I just wanna let you know that these work really well when you use Super-Sticky Post-it Notes! (I’ve been making them at work.)

That way you don’t have to use glue… but they are VERY fragile. lol

When I glue the individual petals, and when I am gluing the flower together, I use paperclips to hold the pieces together.

Recycled paper, like magazine pages, gives great texture and unexpected patterns.

They are so simple and easy to make. Ive been making a few each night on auto pilot as the BF and I watch episodes of Star Trek: Voyager on DVD. I think that these will also store very well for next year, as they are pretty darn sturdy. I tried making some out of an old calendar last night (thicker paper) and I had a little trouble getting them to stay glued. [...]

Do you have any information on how these were/could be used for incense? Just curious.

Also any ideas on use of just the individual flowers and not the whole ball? The flowers are so pretty by themselves, and I would like to teach my girl scout troop how to make them. But am struggling about what to “do” with the individual flowers.

Thanks!

Any ideas would be great!
