Easy Paper Flowers

This is my version of an easy paper flower instructional. I used coffee filters and book pages.
The color possibilities are endless.
The Duck Walking West is another of my Folksy Rustic side. Click for flower patterns:

I used Netty LaCroix paper with a black velvet fabric center . I kept it simple and made one layer of papers. The chickens are going to get framed one of these days. Here is where you can get amazing papers by Netty.

A Book of Folk Art Fun

A thoughtful gift. Thank you my friend. Now what will I make???
This book is full of fun 19th century-inspired primitive projects for your home. It was given to me by my longest friend, Joan. You can find Maggie Bonanomi on www.amazon.com. I love the decorating ideas, I still have one foot in folk art. I think I always will be a bit rustic.
