Explore 40 floral-themed activities and 80 pages of specialty papers to add beauty, fun, and creativity to your life!



Flowers color our lives and make us feel good. This vibrant book uses flowers, floral motifs, botanical information, and legends and myths about flowers as inspiration for artists and crafters of all levels.



Illustrated with more than 200 floral drawings, it features 40 step-by-step floral-themed projects and recipes that show you how to make floral wreaths, paintings, potpourri, massage oils, centerpieces, and more; flower-scented waters, herbal teas, and other food and drinks are included too. Once you’ve completed the projects in the book, use them as inspiration for your own floral artistic creations.



You'll also find 80 pages of floral paper and special inserts—postcards, origami paper, bookmarks, gift tags, coasters, stickers, and more—to give a flowery boost to your creations. Like a bursting seedpod, spread flowers all around you!
