Class: Paper Flowers

Learn to make beautiful flowers and bouquets in this class. The art of paper flowers is limitless once you learn a few basics. Its an easy art, pretty inexpensive and allows you to be as creative as you want when you’re making the flowers. Fall in love with all kinds of paper, which is the key to making beautiful flowers. We’ll be using crepe paper for our first class, but there are 100s of kinds of papers you can use. From paper bags to wrapping paper to tissue paper and beyond. We will also explore making the stems with floral tape and other kinds of tape like washi tape and fabric tape. We’ll start by using a template for the particular flower we’ll be making and hopefully we can continue the class to work into making our own templates and creating flowers we see in nature. All you really need to get started is an imagination and love for flowers. So, lets get started!

About the Instructor: I am a Moab local and have been creating paper flowers for over a decade now. I have always loved flowers and creating art, but I realized a long time ago I am not a great painter or drawer, so I looked for ways to create without using those two mediums and the art of paper flowers stuck. I use the paper flowers in my house and for gifts as bouquets or on wrapped presents. I see ideas and inspiration all over the desert and the world. I look forward to passing along this art to all of you.
