5.0 out of 5 stars These aren't the flowers you're used to..., March 25, 2001
By "alight" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
Forget about kids--get this for yourself. I bought it a few days ago, and ever since it showed up, I've been making flowers like a fiend. It's ridiculously easy, and as always with klutz books, pretty much everything you need is included. You supply scissors; if you've got the ones with wavy or crinkly edges, you'll have a few more options. I started with the tissue paper at the back of the book, but since then have been experimenting with all sorts of papers from around the house--old paper bags make surprisingly gorgeous flowers. Instructions for simple pompoms get you started, after which you can whip through everything from sweetpeas and delphiniums to lilies and irises. Templates for the petal shapes are at the back of the book, but freehand shapes are fun too, and work especially well if you've got those previously mentioned wavy scissors. I'm decorating several easter baskets with the garlands I've made, and the garlands can be taken off and easily made into flowery crowns for little princesses. If you want to let the kids share in the fun, watch the pipe cleaner ends--they can really be sharp! And you should tear the tissue sheets out of the book- it takes a pretty firm hand to get them out cleanly. Highly recommended as a gift for girls ages 8 through 12 and an activity for ages 6 and up ; while boys will have fun too, the book looks pretty "girly" at first glance, so it might not be the most exciting thing to unwrap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingingly lifelike easy and beautiful flowers.Buy it now!, May 23, 2001
By Joanna (Utah USA) - See all my reviews
If you want to make paper flowers this is the book to get. I had a hankerin' to make some paper flowers and so bought this book, but was not prepared for how much fun it would be. I didn't realise it had everything in it that you need, i.e. tissue paper and pipe cleaners. You would think they'd give you enough to make just a couple but NO! There are 75 sheets of tissue in every color you can imagine and 40 pipe cleaners for stems. My house is overflowing with flowers!! This is not just a book for children, but adults too and I think it would be an especially wonderful gift for a teenage girl. The finished flowers look exactly like the ones in the book and so realistic. And they are so simple! You need to get this book - you won't be disappointed and it is money well spent.

5.0 out of 5 stars How Does Your Garden Grow?, October 18, 2000
By A Customer
I find that Klutz books are generally the best for learning any new craft. I wasn't even convinced that I wanted to make tissue paper flowers until I saw this book. The cover says that the flowers are "good enough to fool bees." This is only a slight exaggeration. My daffodils and carnations were remarkably realistic and very easy. My six-year-old was able to make pom pom flowers and carnations. After showing her the basics, I came back to the table to find she had made a vase full on her own. The book provides templates, paper, pipe cleaners (for stems), and beautiful pictures that show myriad variations of each bloom. In addition, the book encourages creativity and invented flowers and gives some ideas for these as well. As an adult, I loved using this book and plan to bring it in to the craft class I run with teens. It's a winner!
