HI Lia when I was a student my mother showed me how to make crepe flowers. We used to make wreaths for funerals flowers were expensive here in Cyprus. Unfortunately I haven't any fotos.After some years flowers became cheaper and we stoped making them. You are very talented.your film reminded me those days!!! Thank you. Excelent job! Greetings from Cyprus.

This is great. I have just started doing this, (I have made a dozen black parrot tulips so far, and have been very pleased with them) and now I'm hooked. So learning all about the paper has answered lots of questions. I last made crepe paper roses about 60 years ago. It's taken me a while to get back, but here I am at last!
