paper poppy pomanders procreate
Posted by Mackenzie on Tuesday, August 22, 2006
The happy couple, plus flower baby #1, plus cat, plus clean living room.
And then there were three... (after 4 short hours of glue gun slinging).
Time passes...............
And now there are seven! Woah. That was a lot of glue. Karen (the FSIL) and I totally rocked the flower balls today. I have no less than 4 visible blisters from the hot glue. It's tricky stuff. It just kind of wants to touch you, even when you don't want it to. Kind of like that creepy guy who stands too close in the subway... just like him. Only hotter.
Tomorrow will be a piece of cake compared to today, only 2 more balls left. Then we get to hang them in the tent!
*By the way: The living room? No longer clean.

Wow! I love those! Where did you get the flowers? We were thinking of doing something similar to that with tissue paper flowers (a la Martha Stewart Weddings), but I like yours much better!
Thanks,

Hi! I just saw this and was wondering if you could send me instructions and or templates that you had used to make the flowers? You did an amazing job and I'm currently trying to make poppy anemone flowers for my hair piece. here's my email: cheryl.a.eng@gmail.com.
Thanks in advance. I love your site!
