Making a Paper Rose

To make this paper rose, I followed the instructions on the Beautiful Paper Flowers kit by Laurie Cinotto. The kit has detailed instructions and materials that will help us make elegant blossoms. With only a few materials, we can make paper flower arrangements for our home, weddings, parities, celebrations or gifts. The book has instructions to make nine different flowers and assortment of leaves that will not perish or fade like fresh flowers, or require us to water or make sure it gets sunlight.

Knitted Rose

I made this knitted rose project by following the instructions on the Stitch-by-Stitch book written by Jane Bull. Although this book is recommended for children between the age of 5 and 8, even adults will enjoy learning from it. The book shows the projects beautifully with detailed zoomed pictures, so we can easily follow it. There are lots of cute projects in this book that are made with felt, wool and cloth.
