About This Class:
Paper is not just about pretty stationary, now it's about stunning florals too. These paper anemones are not just a therapeutic craft but also make for a beautiful home accessory (and they're great for the not-so green fingered amongst us).
We will go through the process step-by-step, with lots of helpful tips along the way. Giving you the templates you need to make both flowers so you can continue making more at home.
During the class you will make a paper anemone on a stem or attached to a clip or brooch, or the option to make a Ranunculus (on a stem or clip or brooch) the perfect beginning for an everlasting bunch of perfect flowers.
